I want to advise you that students who rush unrecognized groups do so at their own risk of academic failure or difficulty and physical and emotional hazing. Hazing has also been a problem with unrecognized groups. An example is saying that the group’s recognition is suspended but that they will regain their recognition later in the year. Members of unrecognized groups sometimes lie to new students about the group’s status. There are Oneonta alumni who were members of these groups when they were recognized and are not aware that the status has changed.
Some of these groups were at one time recognized by SUNY Oneonta and were affiliated with national organizations but chose to end their affiliation with the university. The dues that are paid are used solely for the social activities of the local group. A student who joins an unrecognized group and pays dues to that group will not be a recognized member on any other campus nor have any of the alumni privileges that go with national membership. Their use of these names is illegal because they are not formally affiliated with the national organizations. They are loosely organized social clubs that often use the Greek letters of legitimate organizations. That means that these organizations have no affiliation with or supervision by SUNY Oneonta, do not follow the rules that are set for Greek social organizations (including the deferred rush policy), and do not give the university the names of their members.
