Why are fraternities so secretive whether you been on a black list or not?

[FlyMcFly]

I already rushed three separate times and got denied every single time. I did fall rush, spring rush, and another spring rush. I literally been to every single chapter at my school, and been denied by every single one of them. There are around 15 at my school. I even got rejected by the chapters with only 13 members who were begging for people to join.

Everyone told me the only way you could have gotten rejected by all of them is if you were blacklisted. Apparently, I later found out I was actually blacklisted by an acquaintance of a friend.

I just wished they told me upfront that I was blacklisted so I didn't waste my time trying. It is so insane that the only way I found out about this was through the backdoor.
