pnm's need to know
by: txstFor any PNM's one thing you need to know is if the fraternity that is rushing you is actually on campus. No matter what line they feed you, your university experience will not be the same if the fraternity you pledge isn't an actively recognized fraternity on campus. Do your research, no matter what they were on campus, how great a fraternity they were, during your 4 year run they will be completely insignificant by your 2nd year. Choose wisely, have a great time, and pick the active house where you find the one that feels like a brotherhood. They are not going to tell you during rush that they are no longer recognized on campus unless you specifically ask, or they will tell you they are working on it. Don't believe it.

Ok delt groupie, I'm also in a top sorority and I'd rather hang out with real frats instead of the ones kicked off...

Why does it matter if it's a real frat or not if the guys are cooler? Yeah, obviously we're all going to fight over who goes to homecoming/mixers with Kappa Sig and phi psi, but as far as just normal parties or chilling on the weekends I'd rather hang out with the older ato's and delts that are still around. It's going to take a year or two before any of the frats remaining get any good (kappa Sig not included)

If you might pledge a fraternity that is not in the IFC, before you pledge that fraternity, contact the national office of that fraternity and ask if the national organization will initiate you into their fraternity from the chapter you are thinking about joining. If they will, get it in writing.

Exactly! The purpose to jointing a Greek organization isn't just what it brings for 4 years of college but for the connections it brings after college. If you go to texas state and say you are a phi mu, well at Texas State you aren't. All these unofficial fraternities are now is a group of boys claiming to be a fraternity. All anyone is saying is don't pay dues to an organization that isn't recognized.

To be clear - we are talking about two types of fraternities. The first type is a fraternity that is not presently in IFC but is still chartered and recognized by its nationals. They may be serving a suspension by the university and, when the suspension expires, be readmitted back on campus by the university. At one time or another, many of the fraternities presently on campus have been in this situation.
The second type is a fraternity that is suspended by the university and has had its charter revoked by its national organization.
Stay away from the second type.

Literally all of the fraternities kicked off campus are the second type. They all got their charters pulled. What was the point of this comment

^This guy above me is so insanely bitter. He wants his fraternity to be top so badly that he would do just about anything, even come on greekrank and talk about 4 frats that were kicked off campus just because he's THAT paranoid and THAT salty. That also goes to about half the guys commenting on this post too, and the guys commenting on this post pretending to be girls in "top sororities". It's funny how they are still threatened by ato, delt, pike and ka even though they were kicked off campus and got their charters pulled haha.

Phi Kappa Tau (Phi Tau) is likely the only fraternity at Texas State that is the second type.

CORRECTION - Phi Tau is the only one that is the first type - their nationals still recognize them.

Best thing I've read on here lately. These were all great fraternities, and we are all going to miss them, but do not rush them, none of them will be back for awhile. As sad as it is and no matter what they tell you, it will not be a good situation for you. Don't waste your time, rush the active fraternities.
