[quote=Anonymous]If your kid is nervous about starting college and leaving his high school friendships behind, which it sounds like he is, encourage him to rush when he gets to campus. There is no faster way to find your tribe and ensure the best possible college experience. People tell horror stories about pledgeship, but 99% of it is positive. It forces you out of your comfort zone and into fast friendships. Plus it's only 8-10 weeks, after which he'll get to enjoy 3 1/2 years of god status on campus and access to the best parties, girls, and networking opportunities. Nationwide, students who go Greek have significantly higher GPAs and graduation rates than those who remain GDIs. They also make more money out of college. Your kid is understandably nervous now, but if he pledges, you'll see a totally different attitude at Christmas. He'll be laughing at his former self for not wanting to take this step in life. Good luck![/quote]
