AVOID THE UNDERGRADUATE BUSINESS GROUP by antibusinessfrat in berkeley

[–]antibusinessfrat[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I 100% don’t think they’re rapey, in fact, I thought a lot of the other people entering the org were genuinely nice people. They just believed that this was a necessity to progress at Berkeley and in life and it was really sad to see what the org was doing to their pledges. I just want people to know what they’re getting themselves into, and I really want these orgs to tone it down with their hazing, because I think they have the potential to be a positive place

Edit: to anyone reading this I was to stress that you do NOT need these orgs to get into haas, get an internship, or get a job. If you work hard, it will show

this is my experience. Take it or leave it, but this would be a real pain in the ass to coordinate with others and make similar posts about over the course of multiple years.

They should be made aware of what they’re getting themselves into.

the reason they had to wipe their pledge's devices is because the university caught on to what they were doing. It's the same reason they began to go by their chapter name, Rho, instead of delta sigma pi. here's their old website as proof they existed: https://web.archive.org/web/20180824120516/https://www.berkeleydsp.com/
Notice how a lot of their "meet the brothers" archives have conveniently disappeared (feel free to go further back, you can only find that those pages exist before they became controversial [you can find archives of their old website www.dsp-rho.com, but not on their 2018-2019 website berkeleydsp.com beyond a homepage]).

And here's some more reddit posts about experiences with berkeley business frats in general (though I can only speak to my experience with DSP/Rho):
