Fraternity invitations

[Anonymous]

DS just arrived as his school is on the quarter system. He’s been invited to 3-4 fraternity things but his roommates were not. Do fraternities have access to student data? How would they know to invite him but not someone else. They are all on the same instagram whatever they are called as that is how they met up as room mates. I find this really weird.

Schools share the social media accounts of prospective students if the student checks that they are ok with it. Based on that, my nephew got several frats to reach out to him prior to school even starting. If his roommate didn't check the box, or doesn't have social media, he won't get a reach out.

Top-tier fraternity men tend to share a certain prototype: good-looking, urbane, lean, muscular, chiseled jawlines, well-endowed, sartorially gifted, and highly confident. The kind of guys who don't get rattled no matter the situation, whether they're chatting up the finest girl at the bar or trying to close a deal with a Fortune 500 CEO. They recruit freshmen who fit that mold to keep their place at the top of the campus pecking order. Clearly, they saw something in your son that they didn’t see in his roommates. Instead of questioning it or worrying about them, he should take it as proof that he has what it takes to be somebody who's somebody on campus. He should go to every event he’s invited to, secure a bid, and enjoy being a top dog for the next 3.5 years, getting invites to the best parties and tailgates and dating/hooking up with the best-looking girls. And thanks to the lucrative alumni networks top-tier houses plug you into, he’ll also graduate with better opportunities and make more money.

OP's son is fine. My response is not attacking OP.

But your description of frat boys is laughable.

OP here. DS is extremely attractive, like movie star good looking, for an 18 year old. He dresses really well and back packed through Europe so his social media is full of images of Italy, Switzerland etc. He’s confident, leadership positions, has tons of friends, hosts great parties and has tons of charisma. He’s also gay and slightly left of Bernie Sanders. His only interest in Fortune 500 companies is to take them down to stop draining the middle and lower income classes. He uses his intellect to engage GenZ guys who think they are MAGA slowly showing them that there is more to that quick sound bite or post they saw and what they think they might have supported isn’t what they thought and against their interest. He prides himself on having open conversations to get people from falling into MAGA holes.

I guess your brethren didn’t see that coming…

Plus two completely wasted opportunities to use the word "foyine".

Yup, same pathetic poster. It’s just he has decided to scrap his use of the word foyine. (Too identifying). That’s progress at least.

Now if he would just stop hanging out in his frat’s basement at HOCO, getting sloppy drunk and pretending he has anything in common with the frat members and while simultaneously evoking pity and disgust in the sorority girls. Every frat has one!

Isn’t this dirty rushing? From what I’ve heard, it’s aimed at good looking boys and/or boys who arrive on campus well connected.

One thing the vast majority of fraternity brothers are not…is urbane…and most are not sartorially gifted.

You are describing kids that join the elite Eating Clubs and Finals Clubs…which maybe you equate as the same thing but trust me they are not.

Do you have some kind of alert set for this topic that prompts you to come and post? You forgot the "campus god" bit this time.

Any fraternity with a national organization will have a mechanism for alumni to recommend incoming freshman. Is there anyone who would've recommended your son?

Northwestern and Dartmouth have pretty insular Greek systems. Yes it works this way.
