up and coming small frats

by: buckaluck

Figured I'd change up the convo here... What small/new frats do you think are some of the best or most promising? Some of them could potentially be mentioned among the ones we usually talk about. Curious to hear what everyone's thoughts are since these should actually be unique opinions.

Delta Chi and Psi U are pretty decent. Pike doesn't suck tho. The fact they don't have a real house sucks, but a fraternity is more than a house. Plus, I've been to pretty fun small parties/game days/prebars there.

If you are unhoused, you are irrelevant and will continue to be until you get a house. Yeah, a "fraternity is more than a house" but you need a house participate in a lot of aspects of greek life.

DU and Aepi both have had to go without houses for a year or longer. Aepi was top tier and DU was THE top house. If top houses struggle with being unhoused, tiny houses trying to establish themselves are gonna struggle even more.

Pike is lower middle tier. The fact they don't have a real house prevents them from getting any further up

their house isn't a fraternity house, only like 10 people can live in, it doesn't have a chapter room, there's no designated dining area or party space, it's just a glorified apartment

So it's just like a college house? Not a frat house?

it's like an apartment building with 3 different 4 person appts or something, so it's designed to support 15 people. Most frat houses have 45-70 people living in them. It just doesn't have the amenities necessary

While some might laugh at them, a friend of mine from high school is in TDX and it sounds like they're starting to head in the right direction. They've had some sanctions put on them by the university but if they get off next year, they could be in store for a decent rush. Not to mention they're starting renovations on their house this summer to be done by fall of 2015, so they'd have, basically, a brand new house.

Based on this year's freshmen that said they were rushing both my frat and TDX, your underclassmen are hardly any different than your upper classmen.

Apparently TKE has made some major changes in their house, and ready to show a new side next fall. Hopefully there is something new to show.

I have not seen a single repair truck, construction vehicle or contractor at all anywhere near their property, so I would be surprised if they made significant improvements to their physical house

Unless you consider the construction of theta chi... but I think this guy is talking about internal changes.

It is my understanding that tke is attempting to be more than just a bunch of retarded drunks next year by becoming more involved in philanthropy events and greek life. I hear they kicked some of their weird members and are trying to be less weird.

If they actually got rid of all their weird members there'd be noone left in TKE...

you're clearly a teke, and the fact that you use the word retarded shows how little these changes will have on the quality of your members. I bid you well.

Just to clarify, Pike has 8 apartments and around 40 guys living in. They do the best with what they've got.

I had a boyfriend who was in TKE and I think they get way too much hate for what the seniors have done. That said they still need to step up next fall.

A step up for them would be actually havinf a social with tridelt
