“So you’re saying that these fraternities, left to their own devices would engage is this sort of behavior (I don’t even want to know what a “wet rush” is).”
Wet rush just means it has alcohol.
- Fraternities recognized by university = university has power to regulate the alcohol in the houses
- Fraternities not recognized by university = university doesn’t have jurisdiction over the alcohol
See how that works?
“Tell me again why anybody would want to subject themselves to this nonsense?”
You’re all over the board, soze. The reason young guys go through fraternity rush is exactly what you’re describing with your friend’s son - because it’s appealing to have a place to “belong” and make new friends. You keep whipsawing between not understanding the appeal, and understanding the appeal but finding it sad that not all kids get to join in the fun.
