Hazing

<p>What frats do it the most?
Also, if any current students can give a breakdown of some of the frats and a list of the best houses that would be really cool. Thanks</p>

<p>Please use the search function. Members of this board don't seem to be very into the Greek scene, but the topic of hazing and the differences between the houses has come up before.</p>

<p>Just some advice.</p>

<p>1) Hazing- it's done at every school by every fraternity no matter what state or university laws there are. It's just a part of greek life. Most of the time you wont get an honest response about what hazing at specific fraternity entails because its part of the pledging process and is secretive in nature. Almost anything you hear will most likely be untrue or embellished. Most surefire way to find out is to pledge</p>

<p>2) In my opinion... you may hear this a lot. Dont base what houses you want to rush based on what other people tell you or a house's reputation. DO NOT JOIN A HOUSE FOR THEIR SOCIAL REPUTATION. Or for that matter if thats all you want out of the greek system don't bother rushing. The social scene at any college is fine outside of the Greek system. You wont have trouble finding parties or girls. </p>

<p>3) Go into rush with an open mind. My freshmen year I only rushed the 3 "top tier" houses at my school. I ended up joining one of the best houses on campus... or at least that's the reputation it had. I rushed for all the wrong reasons all I really cared about was the houses rep and their social schedule. I ended up dropping because 1) their hazing sucked and 2) I didn't have a real connection with any of my pledge brothers or any of the brothers in the house. While its unrealistic to say to rush every house you should rush as many as you can. Pledge one where you get along with the guys in the house. Pledge at the one where there are other guys similar to you and share your interests. These are the people you will be spending the majority of your time with so make sure you have a real connection with them.</p>

<p>That's the best advice I can give you. I'm hoping for a re-do in the greek system this fall and I'll be rushing as many houses at USC that I can</p>

<p>**my experience last year wasn't at USC it was at University Of Arizona but that doesn't change anything =). Just thought I'd let you know</p>

<p>All the houses do it to some extent and I hear it keeps getting worse, it will keep getting worse until something serious happens and then there wont be as much hazing, it's sort of a cycle and I'd say you are coming in at a pretty bad part.</p>

<p>I posted a summary but apparently people can't take the truth so I'll make it simple. AEPI, SIGMA CHI, SAE, and LAMBDA CHI are the only four houses that pull hot girls, the rest pull girls like a subpar freshmen party, I think its fair to post this because the frats will lie to you and tell you they pull so many hot girls, but i can tell you for a fact only those four houses do, and probably Phi Psi too if it comes back at full strength.</p>

<p>Dont listen to USCfootball... there's a reason nobody listened to him the last couple times he posted.... First off almost all the girls at USC are gorgeous, and for that matter the ones in almost all of the sororities (save a few exceptions) are good looking as well. If your in a fraternity I wouldn't worry about the girls that you'll "pull" at parties. Like I said... rush with an open mind... it will make the experience so much better.</p>
