Your deprivation of fun and burial in books will bring you back to appreciating fun. And when you come around, rush season will be there waiting for you! Fraternities and sororities across campus are looking for fresh Greeks to be their future brothers and sisters.

HOT BARTENDER
I would be a long island iced tea, because I am sweet and fun but get you drunk quickly.
Whats your favorite holiday to bartend and why?
St. Pattys Day because all of my bar patrons are dressed up and love to have a great time. How could you go wrong with a holiday based on drinking all day and night? e only downfall is the increase in the probability of males ghting each other.
Whats the craziest thing youve ever seen at the bar?
Hmmmthats a tough one. ere was a time when two girls were going at it right in front of me at the bar (awkward).
What are the best and worst pick-up lines youve heard?
Best: Well it isnt exactly a pick up linebut one of my favorite regulars one time bought out the ower lady and put together a bouquet of roses for me. It was very sweet. Worst: Ill buy you a shot if you lift up that sweater and show us your butt.
It feels like I am hanging out with all of my friends because we have a lot of regulars. Its a fun job and Im great with people, so sometimes it doesnt even feel like work.
If you could bartend anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Well, I would have to say that its the fact that there is always something going on at my bar. ere [are] ping pong competitions, beer pong, open mic comedy, live music, and much more!

THE BEST IN TEXAS SHARE THEIR STORIES, PLANS AND WORDS OF WISDOM FOR RUSH
COMPILED BY: SAM SUMPTER
HECTOR GUZMAN:
What are your contributions to your fraternity? I would like to think that I serve as a leader of the men in my fraternity. Being around our organization for three years now has taught me a thing or two, and I plan on relaying that to my fellow brothers in order to give them the knowledge to keep our chapter up and running once my time has passed. How are you inuential within your campuss Greek community? Along with the other presidents in the Greek community, we are always putting our heads together in order to strive for what is best not only for Greeks, but the entire student body at UTSA. We are constantly striving to reach the ideal vision of the ultimate campus experience. Whether relating to our football tailgates or making the students reach their maximum potential during nals week, we are always on our toes seeking what we could do next. What would members of your fraternity say about you? Hopefully that Im as passionate as anyone they know. Ever since joining in the fall of 2010, TKE has meant the world to me. It has presented me a group of brothers that I have made countless unforgettable memories with, allowed and pushed me to accomplish things I wouldnt have thought doing in a million years, as well as [assisted me in] becoming a better overall individual in life. What are your plans for your fraternity this year? Obviously our members education is at the top of the list. I have challenged my brothers to have the chapter obtain an overall 3.0 GPA for the fall semester. We have never been terrible with our grades, but I think its time for us to take it an extra step. Also giving back to the community is an extremely important pillar of our fraternity. We want to be ranked #1 in community service hours as well as money raised on campus this semester. What advice would you give guys going through rush? Be con dent. Con dence is the rst thing we look for when searching for new guys. We need men who can handle themselves in all sorts of situations.

WORDS: TSM WRITER, EDITOR & CONTENT MANAGER AKA HOT PIECE OF TSM
Your body is literally going through alcohol withdrawal Or your ass is literally going to standards. The only things youve ingested are coffee, Red Bull, and pixie sticks Sleep is for the weak. So is food. There is glitter in your car, in your shower, and in your bed But miraculously, when you get to the house, there is still more glitter there. You feel like if you meet one more communications major, you might actually become stupider *More stupid. Your Facebook stalking has reached a new level So has your ability to pretend that when a person tells you something about herself, you have not already read it somewhere on the internet. Youre learning it for the rst time. It is painful to talk because your voice is so hoarse Whether its from singing, chanting or bitching, if you dont sound like youve been chain-smoking since 94 by the end of it, youre doing recruitment wrong. The seniors have become this rare and horrifying breed of banshee After all, if youre not jumping at least three inches off the ground, you wont get THE HOTTEST PLEDGE CLASS EVER. Walking on glass might have done less damage to your feet than your shoes did this week But you are under 57, so blisters or not, you can not switch to atsthat would only make you four inches uglier. Your relationship with your sorority is at an all-time high Your relationship with your favorite fraternity is at an all-time low. You nally feel complete, only when you welcome 64 beautiful babies into their new home And subsequently have to spend over an hour welcoming them home via social mediabut in the end, its all worth it.

Be yourself, but do DONT TRY TO PROVE nt be a tryhard. This....just dont. YOURE COOL When talking to members of a house theyre interested in, rushes have a tendency to want to prove themselves. Since they often cant do so with any actual actions on the spot, they end up telling lame stories about how much they drank at a high school PHOTO: TFM party or something. Were about as impressed that you took seven Jaeger bombs at a prom after party as we are that you got a hole in one at a mini-golf course. I once had a rush tell me the reason he was a virgin is because his dick was too big for high school girls. That kid was not extended a bid, and if I could have, I would have expelled him from the university.
6 7 8 9 10
DONT ACT LIKE YOU KNOW EVERYTHING If an active is telling you something about the house, or about Greek Life, dont interrupt with an oh yeah I know or thats what I heard. Even if you DID hear that, its an annoying thing to hear when trying to inform someone of something, and what you heard was probably wrong anyway. Yes, the houses want cool kids, but they also want kids they can shape. Know-itall rush generally equates to annoying pledge. This note sort of doesnt apply to legacies, sort of. DONT TALK ABOUT ALL THE FRATTY CLOTHES YOU OWN If someone brings it up, sure, ne, whatever. Still, chatting about your closet with a bunch of dudes is awkward and makes you seem, at best, like a try-hard. DONT TRY TO ASSERT YOUR DOMINANCE Obviously youre incapable of doing this to the actives, who are all ten times the man you are at this point, lowly rush. However, I mean dont sit there and rip on geeds all day. If you have something funny to say about a drum circle, go for it; everyone likes a good hippie joke. However, sitting there saying those geeds are lame, these geeds are lame, makes you sound like a high school girl. Also, youre still technically a geed, so shut up. DONT TRY TO OUT-DRINK ANYONE When you nd yourself at a rush party, have a good time and get drunk, but dont treat it like a competition. Youll just end up being the drunkest guy at the party, and probably end up looking like an asshole. The chances that you do something funny compared to the chances that you do something absolutely stupid and embarrassing are not in your favor.

Your car is starting to look a little dirty, and it isnt going to clean itself
Cleaning a car ranks right between shaving daily and grinding your nuts against sandpaper on the international shitty-things-to-do scale. While you could always just pay an enthusiastic homeless member of your community to knock it out, the extra sweat and effort that go into a pledges car-cleaning attempts takes your ride to another level.

Your shoes are untied
Sure, you could choose not to be a lazy asshole and tie them yourself, but whats the fun in that? Having a new pledge class holds the added bonus of a new set of shoe-tiers and general living room furniture. Wish you had an ottoman to lay your weary Sperrys upon? Theres a pledge for that.

Though its hilarious to picture a man in a neck brace and suspenders singing Pour Some Sugar On Me, the Spazmatics never disappoint with awesome performances of just about every popular '80s song that you know, including Sweet Child o Mine, Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go and Whip It. If youre straight-up looking for a great time where no one is afraid to act ridiculous, then come out this month for whats sure to be a totally bitchin show.

Either way, weve compiled ve easy ways to get kicked out and make the transition from fraternity guy to GDI. Yeah, youre welcome.
