SBBC : JAY CUTLER EDITION

[faustian]

Lmao @ that novel. If you have game it doesn't matter what student you are.

Lol at the whole concept of "game"

I refuse to put any effort whatsoever into getting laid. I'm basically like a great white shark when it comes to predation

i would feel bad for hugh
saw him at seaworld w/ the seven gfs back in the day, he totally had his samoan or whatever security d'bo anyone that approached him or the chicks. and he looked like the cryptkeeper's decrepit ass in real life.

does it matter how old you are for frats? Or just start your own SBBC frat: Sigma Beta Beta Chi.

Holy shit, Miguel. You just stumbled on a great idea.

How would a SBBC frat break down? And what posters fit that role?


*wasnt in a frat, but had friends that were and partied with them often

I get that Playboy has basically become a celebrated part of Americana, but is anyone else bothered by the fact that Heffner apparently must've had zero qualms with taking advantage of and exploiting people? Not saying that was always the case, but you kinda have to assume it happened every once in awhile. I wonder how many bullshit promises were made in exchange for things during his 150 something year career as a pornographer

he gave no fucks

he'd bring new young playmates into his bedroom, take some viagra, and lay some towels down. there would be like 6 chicks giving CPR to his dick while cheering him on as playmates bartered their dignity for a Playboy spread.

Lol good question. I don't think age matters as long as you're paying your dues. Plus as a rule now I brutally lie about my age at all times (by anywhere from 5-10 years depending on the sitch) even when I have no incentive to. When I was recently at the dentist I lied to the dentist about my age even tho I knew he would know I was lying. Anyways I joined PIKE at UM like a decade ago and afaik I'm considered a PIKE alumnus. Paying dues would make me active I would assume. Problem is PIKE is currently kicked off campus again lmao

Sigma Beta Chi Chi sounds good in theory but CiH and Beri would probably have to become actual UM students in order to join

 

[iwhoopedbatman]

Ah, PIKE. PIKE was the rugby/crew frat at my college. I played rugby, so went there for post-game drink ups after games. Then by the time I was a senior, none of the rugby players had bothered to actually join, so the crew team kicked us out completely because all we ever did was get wrecked and fuck up the house. Meanwhile they were all disciplined with their 6am runs and shit. Lol, lame ass, can crew team. The 'basketball frat' was called CROW or something, but they lost their house my freshman year because the house was condemned and they basically gave up.

My closest friends all ran St. Elmo's, but they got kicked off campus for constantly violating every rule they could find. Their frat got run out of one of my best friend's apartments (literally right next to campus on the same street as most of the frats) by my Junior year.

For my part, I thoroughly enjoyed taking full advantage of all frat facilities whenever the hell I wanted without even considering ever joining one. I got invited to rush half the houses at school, but just laughed at the notion of going through any kind of hazing to be friends with my friends. I was just like, "I already come to all the parties, I raid your kitchens whenever I feel like, and have my pick of the same girls that come to all your parties. But you want me to go through some initiation shit and pay dues? LMAO."

Of course, part of it was that the school was only about 1500 students total with 90% of students living on campus, so you kind of knew everyone you wanted to anyways. Didn't really understand why anyone bothered. Should have just turned the frat houses into 'partying allowed' student housing. That's all it was anyways.

The value of being in a frat is pretty much dictated by the school you're at. Gainesville is a college town, so you can get dropped off in the middle of randomness while blindfolded and still end up at a house party within 15 minutes. Any given Fri or Sat night you could go to any given apt complex and find a party. There was literally zero reason to join a frat at UF. I was an automatic transfer due to my membership at UM but I was just like "nah I'm good fam." I'd planned on still going to their parties but in college town Gainesville a frat house party was hardly even distinguishable from other house parties. If anything the frat party would be less interesting because there was scrutiny (especially for PIKE lol) to be wary of

UM was an entirely different scenario. Rather than a college town, UM is a tiny school in a major city. Being in a frat had value, and PIKE was by far the most valuable frat. We had carte blanche outside the classroom when it came the UM social scene. We could do a sorority mixer whenever we wanted with whichever sorority we wanted, we had one particular sorority that was essentially beholden to us by their own choice, we were invited to UM football team parties (multiple players were PIKES), and we were given very preferential treatment at the local Coconut Grove college bar The Tavern. This preference included everything from bar tabs to bar fights.

Our status meant something, it was valuable, so it was something worth protecting. So we made sure no one would crash our parties. Any non-PIKE who wasn't a football player who tried sneaking his ass into our house during one of our parties was inevitably going to be identified and then dealt with. This typically meant being taken out back and thrown into our pool and then escorted out of the house.

I myself grew tired of a certain aspect of the gung ho rah rah frat mentality pretty quickly, I thought it seemed fake, but within every frat are cliques and the small clique of friends I made in PIKE are some of the best friends I've ever had in my life. We kinda did our own thing within and independent from the frat and that was where the actual "brotherhood" was formed. Amongst ourselves. Of the original 5 of us, 2 have since passed, but the remaining 3 of us can count on eachother for literally anything.

 

[HunterSdVa29]

played in the frat leagues all 4 years for basketball and flag football for different frats, but i never joined any or even considered it. mad parties everywhere around campus or in PB or shit Tijuana anyhoo, but more importantly i only smoked. Rarely drunk and certainly didn't do other shit and our frat scene was absolutely egregious. I've posted the link before of the massive drug bust, if you haven't read it some phenomenal highlights.
-On May 6, 2008, the Drug Enforcement Administration announced the arrest of 96 individuals, of whom 75 were San Diego State University students, many of them interns at Adobe Systems Incorporated,[4] on a variety of drug charges in a narcotics sting
-Additionally, the Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Kappa Theta, Phi Kappa Psi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Sigma Alpha Mu and Theta Chi fraternity chapters received interim suspensions as a result of the operation.[6] The Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Kappa Psi and Theta Chi chapters were subsequently expelled from campus, as were two other chapters who had initially avoided interim suspensions, Delta Sigma Phi and Sigma Pi. [7][8]
-Two kilograms of cocaine were seized, along with 350 Ecstasy pills, 50 pounds of marijuana, psychedelic mushrooms, hash oil, methamphetamine, illicit prescription drugs, other drug paraphernalia, three guns, and $60,000 in cash

They previously had the frat houses off campus in their own independent areas, but shit was getting out of control so they made an entire new Frat Row right on the edge of campus near sets of dorms and the SDSU basketball arena while i was there. This, obviously, made the problem worse as they were all right there and then able to collaborate on their drug pushing.
It was literally like spring break every weekend, completely out of control.

You are bringing back all of my memories of trips to West Point and King of Prussia.

He was just another person who had a significant role in the social advancement of America, but led a sketchy personal life.

I'm guessing there really just wasn't much of a desire to install an ornate gothic superstructure in the middle of a small campus in Miami, FL

Which is fine with me. I actually prefer the privacy of the individual work stations over cafeteria style seating as well as not feeling like I'm trapped in a medieval church dungeon LMAO

I love Florida - LOL. Beautiful setting and then they do those faux ash cubicles and godawful seats - WTF?

Speaking of universities and spending money on facilities, it is astounding how much money is poured into buildings and stuff for students now. I walk around UMich or Stanford and these places are like palaces now. When I was an ugrad there were a lot of buildings from the 50s and even from the early 1900s. As a grad student the transition to more modern buildings started. As a post doc I was in a fairly modern 90s bldg that looked like an office bldg. Then they built the Clark center, the place looked like a space ship from a James Cameron movie FFS. They made a cafeteria and brought in a chef from the Peninsula hotel in Hong Kong!?!?! The food was insanely good -- unfortunately students couldn't afford to eat there.

From ugrad:

[therealdope]

Pretty sure our women’s architecture is far from horrible LMAO

Key words being "some of". There is some awesome stuff in Florida but there is a bunch of stuff that makes me scratch my head. TBF the art deco stuff in Miami is awesome. The Fountainbleu (still have to see it post renovation) and the Eden Roc are GOAT material.

 

[therealdope]

Hilariously enough most of the other buildings on campus are pretty nice

Definitely. Those are some nice places for student life.

The Wellness Center gym:

This^^^ place looks like exactly like a bunch of the newer places at stanford.
