My GPA Is Currently Low, How Will Joining Your Fraternity Help Me Improve It?
There are some frats that are actually for academic support purposes but then there are others that do things apart from supporting one’s academic pursuit.
If the person you are talking to belongs to a frat who doesn’t care about members’ academics, this is a good question to ask.
It will be incredibly funny if you are talking with someone who knows that you are in your second year or an advanced level in college.
What Is Your Biggest Regret About Joining The Fraternity?
Fraternities have been made to look so appealing you wonder if they are not without side effects. There should be one or two problems with being a member of a fraternity and you can expect that the person who’s a member already might have some.
This question appeals to the desire to share a problem with joining a frat which may not be obvious from the outside.
Is There A Member Who Joined Recently That You Wish You Could Stop From Being A Member?
If you belong to a group and you aren’t in the position to say yes or no to new members joining, I am sure you must have seen or heard one that you wished you could reject their application.
Either because they do not meet your expectations for members or something about their person does not sit well with you.
It is possible that the frat guy you are talking to might have been in this shoe before. And maybe because they do not have a say about members joining, they had to sit it out.
Did You Learn About A Fraternity That You Wished You Were A Part Of Instead Of The One You Belong To?
Sophomores will be victims of this problem as they may have joined a fraternity only because it was the first one they saw. Then, after a couple of weeks, they learned about another frat and wished they joined that one instead.
The question, “Did you learn about a fraternity that you wished you were a part of instead of the one you belong to?” is going to generate a truly laughable response if they actually were victims of the mainstream idea rather than what fits them best.
What Is One Reason That Will Make You Prevent Your Siblings From Joining This Fraternity If They Came To This College?
Another funny question that you can ask frat guys to provoke funny responses is “What is one reason that will make you prevent your siblings from joining this fraternity if they came to this college?”
They do not necessarily need to have a response premeditated but then they could say a thing or two in the spur of the moment that could be jocular.
What Is Easier: Being In A Fraternity Or Training A Dragon?
If you haven’t joined a frat before, you might be surprised to know that there are certain fraternities that are a lot to handle. This is a question that could engender silly answers as you get to know if you can meet up with frat demands.
What Was The Biggest Expectation You Had That Wasn’t What You Thought It Would Be?
There are a lot of reasons why people want to join fraternities. They might have heard incredible stuff that convinced them to think they could join the frat. If a person has spent a considerable amount of time as a member of a group, then you can try to find out if they belong with a disappointment still.
Has There Been A Time When You Felt The Fraternity Was A Hell Hole Rather Than A Place Of Love And Support?
Frats are usually about love and support but then it could turn out to be tumultuous sometimes. With a question like this, you are going to get them to talk about the fraternity and whether there are issues that might discourage someone from joining in terms of how they interact with each other. You can use this to learn a thing or two about what to expect in the frat.
If You Were To Describe The Fraternity With A Funny Word, What Would It Be?
Simply asking the frat guy to describe his frat with a funny word can do the trick if you want to get the conversation going.
As people who have been members for quite some time, I am sure the person would have something interesting to say to this question.
Have You Met Members Of Other Chapters Of Your Community And Thought “Damn, I Joined The Wrong Chapter?”
Fraternities have chapters and it is possible that one chapter seems to be doing far better than another. A frat member may only realize this when they come into the same space with others.
So, you can ask the fraternity members if they thought they made a wrong decision about joining the fraternity they joined when they saw other people.
Is Joining Your Fraternity A Healthy Financial Decision?
This is another question that can give you vital information about a fraternity even though it has a light undertone. Frat members typically pay dues and other levies so it might be interesting to know if they think the decision to join isn’t great at all.
What Is The Funniest Experience That You’ve Had Since Joining The Frat?
Talking about their experience could have a funny undertone. To get them to share the funny aspects of their time in the frat, you can ask them “What is the funniest experience that you’ve had since joining the frat?”
What Has Been The Funniest Reason Someone Gave You For Wanting To Join Your Frat?
As an old member, the person you are talking to must have seen a lot of prospective new members talk about why they want to join their frat. You can ask them for a reason a PNM gave that could not have them keep their cool.
What Has Been The Weirdest Misconception About Your Frat That You Heard Recently?
People have a lot to say about fraternities even when they do not belong to one. These small talks might have gotten to the ear of the Greek member you are having a conversation with. It might be jocular to find out the misconceptions they must have heard.
If You Got Into A Rap Battle With A Competing Frat, Do You Think Your Frat Stood A Chance?
There are so many frats in colleges and the desire to be competitive is always there. Also, you will find areas where the competitive vibe is given expression.
But then, not everything can be used as a yardstick for judging the superiority of a frat. When a rap battle wouldn’t be suited for such a competition, this is a question to use.
If You Wanted To Discourage A Person From Joining The Frat, What Would Be Your Go-To Reasons?
I don’t expect frat members to want to keep people away from joining their groups. But for some reason, I think that “If you wanted to discourage a person from joining the frat, what would be your go-to reasons?” is a good question to ask.
Will Being A Member Of This Frat Secure My Job Future?
Being gainfully employed is hardly the deal when you join a frat so asking “Will being a member of this frat secure my job future?” might spurn the person you are speaking to and I think it can lead to more funny conversations between you two.
In The Obligation That Prospective New Members Take, What Funny Catchphrase Do You Think You’ll Want To Add?
Frat members read or say yes to an obligation. It is like part of the ritual when you are joining a frat. Usually, there could be boring statements in the obligation and this question seeks the frat’s guy opinion about the obligation and something funny they’d like to add.
What’s The Funniest Response You’ve Heard When Asking A New Member Why They Want To Join The Fraternity?
One of the questions that new members are asked is for them to give reasons about why they want to join the fraternity.
This old member must have heard some bizarre responses from Pledgees. It will be hilarious to know what they have heard.
Who’s A Current Member Of The Frat You Would Like To Kick Out And Why?
Maybe because they are annoying or something, it is likely that the frat guy has someone in mind, someone they’d like to kick out.
Asking them why they’d want to kick out the person may lead to funny conversations and silly insider notices about the frat and its members.
