Greek Life Process

Last week was Rush Week. Upperclassman could rush to receive a bid from a Fraternity. I can rush in the spring. Alpha Phi Omega, a service fraternity is open for anyone to rush. Needless to say, I rushed hoping to get a bid from the group. Fifty people rushed for twenty spots. I am one of thirty people who did not receive a bid.

Yes a part of me is a little upset, i wasn't asked to be a part of the group. How does one gain clarity of this? Surely you don't just ask one of the brothers. Greek life is something I don't really understand just yet. What does it really mean to be in a brotherhood?
