lol, that reminds me a Margaret Thatcher quote: “Being powerful like being a lady; if you have to tell people you are, then you aren’t."

But on topic: I agree with point one, jean shorts are a little odd, especially since we hold or rush in January, but as for the “three A’s” they’re perfectly acceptable. Then again, my chapter is in the (insert ominous music here) North.

Shhhh. You better not say that too loud or he will challenge your manhood with your ability to make conversation on fishing, hunting or sailing.

Hey now! At least jorts is our biggest problem!

But that is some good advice. I've got some tips to add.
1- Eat the food you are offered. Honestly, it's rude not to accept, and they'll think you're weird if you turn down free food.
2-I can't stress the way you dress enough. Dressing well shows that you care about first appearances. No tennis shoes, not even if you're wearing shorts.
3-Name dropping can get really annoying really quick. If you know people that can pull for you, the actives are in touch with them, so don't worry about it.
4-Spend an adequate amount of time rushing. If you leave after 20min, no one will think you care.
5-Make sure you meet a lot of the brothers. The more, the better.

The best part about this post is that I hear those words on a regular basis. I can't bring myself to say any of them but the standard "fratty".

1- Yeah, eating a light meal before rush is the way to go.
2- The tennis shoes goes without saying. Sperrys are the best choice for rush.
3- One of the more common mistakes, I forgot to mention it.
4- Yeah, I went into rush with it narrowed down to three so it wasn't a problem for me.
5- Good one

Any time I get a chance to make a comment about jorts or ugly girls, I'm gonna do it. Its like fish in a barrel. I fully expect you to fire back with a comment about all of the south florida guidos and trashy girls we have here. I'm gonna update the intial post now, tell me what you think.

No no no! I think you meant to say UNC, not Wake. Wake is a questionable choice for the fratty label.

Maybe my Wake friends just run in fratty circles?
