re: Do people use fraternity consultants?

Exactly. They either like you or they don’t. You’re either cool or you’re not. If that requires much if any “trying” on the rushee’s part, then you ain’t cool and it’s gonna show rather quickly, consultant or not.

Too late. Her father is already a husband that’s funding it. He’s married to the Queen, and stuck in the cycle.
Marrying the princess can’t be much worse than being married to her mother.

I went through rush at LSU in 1959. It was a hoot then, not too different from that shown on Animal House, i.e., booze, beer, rush girls flirting with you, rush chairman already drunk glad-handing all the rushees. Didn't need a consultant then, just enjoy the ride, and end up with bids from three of the fraternities you rushed.

Seems like that would be an automatic blackball if you found out a rushee was using a consultant.

Sombiches are real desperate to fit in I guess.

He seems more confused about why it’s even a thing and I can’t imagine he forks up the money.

Back in the day if you were a GDI but a stud flag football, hoops, or softball player the frats would beg you to join. Gotta win that Greek title and impress the sororistutes.

I have the utmost respect and admiration for the entrepreneurial spirit of these consultants. GENIUS! Get some poor sucker to part with their hard earned $$$ for advice on how to get little Braxton in a frat. GENIUS!

Yes, we had to sidestep dinosaur poop walking across the quad.

“consultant” who helps kids get bids to fraternities they want.
2) If you're dead set on joining a fraternity but you have no clue about the campus, just find someone from your high school that's attending that university and ask them if they know about the frats, or if they know someone you can talk to.
3) If you have to fight to get a bid to join a specific fraternity, it's not the fraternity for you. If you're an anti-social, unathletic nerd, don't think that getting into the fraternity with the school leaders and athletes will suddenly make you a school leader and an athlete. Find a fraternity with people like you and enjoy life.

Future pledges have handlers now, apparently?

I imagine that one wouldn't have bounced off the glass as delicately.

No consultant is getting a random weirdo an old row bid without connections or a donation.

1987. I took the ACT once during the summer before senior year of HS. I got a 28, which is OK enough I suppose. But I got a letter from every single frat at LSU wanting me to come check them out. I guess I was going to be the GPA-raiser
. I had to disappoint all of them, as frats were nowhere remotely interesting to me.
