Hey Guys, I'm currently a freshman and rush week for Delta Sigma Pi begins this Monday. From my understanding, we go out and flirt with brothers for about 2 hours every night trying to make them want us. Does anyone here who has rushed/pledged a business frat have any advice about standing out? I believe about 300 students plan on rushing and 15-25 students are accepted from each class.

Just be you man. You're going to spend so much time with these kids so just do what you usually do. Also, talk to EVERY brother so they will at least be able to put a face to a name when bids/interviews come out.
Your first mistake was not rushing AKPsi.
You're second mistake.....well, there isn't one.
I'm kidding, good luck. My actual advice would run counter to the advice above; don't go talk to every one and have shallow interactions. There are too many people; they really aren't going to remember you (I certainly didn't/couldn't). What you need to do is cultivate 5-10 "advocates"; what will basically happen is we will all get a room and put your picture up. Then we will vote. Almost no one has a real opinion on the kid, so it's the strong opinions that count. Not coming off bad to anyone+coming off great to 5 or so= getting a bid.
These aren't like social fraternities that let one person blackball you just because you had beef in middle school. Just interact well with a few people and they will speak highly of you at voting for who gets let in to the pledge process. Introduce yourself to plenty of people, but really just talk to a few in depth. Voting takes hours so if a few people are a solid consensus "yay" vote, you're good.
Just read John-Doe's post and he nailed it too.
Hope it goes well.
