Audience

The audience for my paper about Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity would mostly consist of incoming freshman males at UCF, ages 17-19. Also part of the audience would consist of male sophomores and juniors already attending UCF from the age range of 19-21. These guys would probably be the social type who wants to meet more people and probably party (because that’s the common stereotype of fraternities)but when rushing would find out that fraternities are much more than just parties they would find it also involves philanthropic work, leadership opportunities and campus involvement. If this is not something they would be interested in then they probably wouldn’t be the right person for a fraternity and they would figure that out very quickly. Whether or not the afore stated obligations fit them or not would be a great measurement of their character. But with fraternities there is always the business aspect and the social aspect and when it comes to rush it is up to the person rushing to find the balance that fits them best. They would probably rush with friends they already have say from high school or who they have met through classes while attending UCF what their friends believe in or are interested in would not necessarily dictate what fraternity they would choose either because everyone is different so while they are friends they may not necessarily got to the same fraternity. What could hurt someone in not knowing when rushing is that not everyone in a fraternity gets along, there are cliques or groups of people who are better friends than other groups, it is just human nature most people do not realize this fact when rushing. In order to keep up with what fraternity might fit them best before rush would to check out the IFC website and check records of who has won what and who has raised money for charities or done community service lately. They would most likely when rushing be looking at the benefits of a fraternity as being creating close bonds with a group of men that would last forever, having that person that would always be there for you, or maybe just a drinking buddy. Whatever they would be looking for they could find and hopefully directly benefit from in joining a fraternity whether it be getting involved on campus or doing community service or finding great brotherhood.
