Ranking the FLOs from Worst to Best

By Mugdown Admin , in Campus Life Special Occasion , at September 8, 2023

  1. FLEX

Remember the group who sat at a lunch table in high school and said mean things about everybody else. Everybody looked the same outside of a few token members.They thought that everybody knew and cared about everything they had to say. Whenever somebody hadn’t heard of their group they got super offended but wouldn’t admit why? Yeah…

  1. FLiC

The IMPACT for freshmen who need more IMPACT and are not women who can rush.

  1. FALL

There are cheaper ways to cope with getting rejected from a women’s org. Try an organically formed friendship! Or just rot if that’s too hard.

  1. Fish Aides

Great if you’re a self-declared agnostic atheist who would like to get converted to Christ through facts and logic. Not great for longevity.

  1. FEAST

Never ask anyone in this FLO their opinion on the month of June.

  1. FAST

The supreme FLO for making sure everybody feels as close as possible to the way this university was before 1963.

  1. FRWD

This is a business FLO, which means that if I had ever heard of them, they’d probably be ranked lower.

  1. FEST

Is there anything scarier than a room full of freshmen engineers?

  1. FREE

Is there anything scarier than a room full of freshmen engineers? pt. 2

  1. FLARE

For those freshmen who want to bond with other unemployables.

  1. FLOC

One of these meetings is the Texas A&M equivalent of walking through the Mii Channel.

  1. FORME

I do not know what this is.

  1. FLIP

The FAST for people who couldn’t get FLEX, and the FLEX for people who couldn’t get FLASH.

  1. MSC FLI

So incredibly unremarkable they managed to skim past the controversy of the lower 13 and secure a spot at 11.

  1. MSC FISH

Known popularly as “don’t those guys do Kyle Field Day?” There is more to this organization than meets the eye. For example, some of them go to class sometimes and are capable of making small talk such as “oh, wow I’ve never met a ____ major before” and “I’m from Houston too!”

  1. Fish Co.

Truly the most normal of the bunch. If these recruits were actual fish, they’d be carp. If they were a candy, they’d be m&ms.

  1. FLED

I can’t think of a single person in this organization who was socialized normally.

  1. PREP

No better place on campus to have a 6 foot tall white man stare blankly at you while you try to explain where the ILCB is than a PREP meeting in October.

  1. FRESH

Created in 2022. This FLO has done close to nothing to either be controversial or interesting, but here’s to that changing in 2023!

  1. ASSIST

The boldest choice anyone in this FLO has ever made is when they didn’t have the name start with “F”.

  1. FLASH

For the average Joe who REALLY liked their freshman Fish Camp experience and wanted some more slices of life from that pie.

  1. FLAKE

Proudly the only FLO that claims they will not hate crime somebody on the spot for being LGBTQ+.

  1. AFC

Perfect FLO for people not pretty enough to be part of the face FLOs, but not ugly enough to go any lower.

  1. MSC ALOT

Unfortunately, the people in this FLO are unproblematic, but just to be clear I know there’s hatred somewhere in their hearts. It’s time for them to act on it.
