[quote=Anonymous]I was most definitely not a "cool kid" and frankly am not a cool adult either, which suits me just fine. When I see the "cool culture" displayed on TV makes me kind of happy to be a quasi nerd:)

However ironically my kids are anything but. I secretly wish they were more like me but they seem happy and good for them. They are super social, well liked and outgoing. So my son is "rushing for a fraternity". I know nothing about this and maybe i am better off. I don't think being the worrier that I am, I would want to  know the details.

However in layman's terms, can someone tell me how long rushing is, what kinds of things they do (please make it G rated for this prude) and once they are "in" what then? Whats the point of belonging to a frat? This may sound stupid but are there min. GPA's that are required to stay in a frat? I would like to think so but not sure if that would be considered "uncool" Thanks ahead for any insight into what is to me a foreign world.....[/quote]
