ITT ask a frat guy anything about fraternitys or college

[.aeterna]

Here is my 2 cents. I live with a frat guy but im not in one. I know all the guys in his frat some where actually once my good friends. I've been to all there parties and what not. Most are nice guys but if ur not in the frat the party wont be as fun as it looks. U will just sit on the outside and drink your beer with ur friends who aren't also in a frat. Its not as cool as people think unless your at a huge school. Id rather just get shredded whenever I want party where ever I want phuck bishes when ever I want and not have to have dues and formals and go through bull**** pledgeship just to be in a "group" of close people

sounds like you would have a lot more fun if you were just a part of one.

people have the wrong attitude towards pledging. at least for me, while it was the most difficult 2.5 months of my life, it was the most rewarding and eye opening. its only 8-12 weeks, and you come out with a lifetime worth of stories. the brotherhood you build with your pledge bros is like none other you can experience in college.

pledging is tough, and you have to be tough to finish it. it'll really test what kind of man you are. (this is solely based on my own experience and my fraternity. it may not be the same with others).

This is true, I have changed a considerably amount ( in a good way ). It is comparable to going to boot camp, you are worked hard, treated poorly, but you become a better more disciplined person.

Are most frats racist?

Hahaha no we are not racist at all. Our frat is probably about 15% ethnic. Nobody owns a visor and nobody wears polo's...... We do have sperrys and snapbacks though, currently rocking both lol. srs.

not at all...there are black fraternities (alpha phi alpha, most notably - MLK Jr. was a brother), latino fraternities, indian, and asian fraternities?

and even the more mainstream ones (such as sig ep, tke, pike, zeta psi, etc) have plenty of diversity among their brothers. its all about what kind of person you are, and what you are looking for in a fraternity. there is a place in "greek life" for everyone, SRS.

in terms of the backwards visor + sperrys..IDK what snapback...i have yet to see anyone with these.

polo's OTOH..you better go shopping *******. (lol jk, but semi srs. besides wearing lettered clothing, i used to wear polos all the time. no popped collar)

On a day to day basis we normally wear jeans ( Go to school in the northwest its always cold ) and our frat shirts. We buy shirts for every date dash, mixer, and event so we always have shirts to wear with our letters on it.

You can pledge anytime. srs.

Damn, for real? I thought there was some sort of stigma if you pledge as a senior.

not at all...if anything, you'll be an easy shoo-in for being the leader of the pledge class. the only thing you have to do is humble yourself because you're going to have brothers (who may be younger than you) giving you sh*t and a hard time. its supposed to be a humbling process for everyone, anyways.
