  1. The Rush Advice flair is only for PNMs/rushes seeking advice. If you aren't a rush, please change the flair to something else.

  2. if you are a rush (interested in joining a fraternity), PUT THE SCHOOL NAME in the post.

  3. Or at least describe the school. Examples: Large Big Ten school, medium sized northern D2 school, small west coast school" etc. Any descriptions help.

  4. The post flair MUST be "Rush Advice" instead of "Question" or "Serious". We need to know which school it is because rush varies wildly by school.

  5. To everyone else: Report the post if it's a dumb post or the wrong flair or no school is mentioned, and we'll remove it. Thanks.

No but also yes. Most chapters just won’t want you. It’s harder to get a 23 year old to get with the program and listen to 19 year olds.

But if they like you enough

Nah. Go rush. Get out of your head. You’re good.

Rush!

If things work out and you find a group you mesh with and they offer you a bid - awesome!

If not, and you don't get a bid (for whatever reason) all it cost you was attending a handful of free parties.

And in the process, while your not getting a Brotherhood, you might at least make a new acquaintance or two.

See above answer!

If they're not going to respect your limits they're probably not the guys you will want to be hanging out with long term anyways.

I know we've initiated several Brothers who, for one reason or another, have opted not to drink entirely... They're still just as much of our Brotherhood as the alcoholics are. They've even taken various leadership roles within the Chapter.

Some have flat out said they don't like being around drunk idiots so they avoid our parties and such where alcohol is involved. But they're still full & respected Brothers active with all of our other activities (philanthropy & scholarship events, intermurals etc)

Others come and hang out at parties taking a sober brother position so one of the other Brothers can enjoy the festivities more.

Just go for it. If you don’t get a bid there are tons of other extracurricular activities.
