<p>Can anyone close to either of these organizations give me info on the organizations in general or their selection process? Besides what I could find on their webpages. Input from actives, recent alumni, and alumni who are active in these organizations is especially welcome.</p>
<p>The Spurs and Cowboys are the most elite fraternal organizations in the nation, no question. They typically have 1 to 2 guys from each fraternity in each of their “pledge classes”. There are some athletes in them, but they are mostly composed of the big 6 (Fiji, SAE, SigEp, Kappa Sig, ATO, and Sigma Chi). Also, you don’t really get to decide that you want to be one, you have to be chosen to apply, then selected after that, not to mention make it through their pledgeship. You’re not really supposed to walk around and say that you want to be one, they are kinda secretive about stuff. Fantastic networking though.</p>
