Hate is a very strong word so..
 

I'll say I really dislike it when I speak with fellow greeks who belong to an org of NIC/IFC, NPC or NPHC, who don't know the relationship of their org to the national conference or council or even that their org belongs to the council/conference.

Also, with NPC and NPHC members, how can you not know which other orgs are members of your conference/council? NIC I can understand because there are so many members, but 9 and 26? Come on!! :rolleyes:

I blieve that may depend on the pledge program. When I was a pledge, I didn't need to learn about any current NIC fraternities, but I took it upon myself to do so.

When I was pledge educator, they had to learn at least 5 fraternities outside of our campus in each council.

But when the rest of your house disagrees with that, then you got to stop.

I think if you're a member of the D9 and you don't know the other 8, you've problems...

Things I dislike about Greek life....

People treat some MCGLOs as if they stole something from other organizations, or don't respect some of the traditions they are founded on....

When a Greeks don't acknowledge or even try to know of other Greeks that are different from those outside of their council....but at the same time they want campus wide Greek unity :rolleyes:

1. Trashtalking. Sick and tired of ppl talking trash on my organization and everything we do. I dont care what other org's do at my school, just quit talking trash!

2. Gossip. WTF! If you date anyone in the greek system all your business is public knowledge. Within 24 hrs your story comes back to you and totally distorted. Going through an issue with an ex right now, shes so INSANE!

3. Groupies. I mean some girls love my chapter, but I had it to death when other girls are such groupie whores. Show some self respect.

Amazing.

A lot of the same thing is mentioned!

I did not know DSSTAN belonged to a smaller Fraternity until he said so.

I did not know that many belonged to anything smaller until I was told?

I did not know until I was told that there were MCGLOS until I was told.

I did not know there Were AGLOS until I was told.

So, what does this say?

It says, that we all learn everyday.

Are We all cookie Cutted out for certain things, no

That is why, new groups come aboard everyday!

What is best, what is oldest, LXA is not the Oldest, but I still Love it and Respect other Greek Organizations. Old or New.:cool:

PIKES get over the trash talk when you have chapters who do silly and stupid things.

We all do.

Stan, get over your small National syndrome.

As long as you have respect for Yours then we all will!

Just give respect when it is given back to you-All of you!

Hate becomes a very strong word!:(

I believe "hate" drew people in, but I specifically said what "irks" you about Greek Life.

WTF.....

I never said I hated my Nationals......If your chapter had 20 and the rest had 60+ you'd have a slight problem with it. When there were 20 IFC frats and all had 60+ (early 90s), things were much easier for SDSU Greeks.

You didn't know there are MCGLOS?...

I have no problem with the orgs themselves, but those in the chapters here that choose to patronize on the smaller GLOS

Look, I'm done reading your moronic, non-sensical, error filled posts that have no relevance to anything. Just stop addressing me for fucks sake...I'm tired of having to try to understand your posts without having the flashbacks of looking over my 9 yr old cousin's English homework pop into my head.

FFS John, can he not be a mod so I can put him on ignore?

ETA: I LOVE the guys in my small chapter, but because of our small size we don't get the respect that the other houses here get no matter WHAT we do on campus. That's MY problem.

Definitely! We have made baby steps so far by helping a sorority that was in trouble but I like to think that we would be that helpful & friendly regardless of what a chapters situation is.

I think it should be mandatory that we learn about other sororities & fraternities that are NOT on our campus. I learned by looking them up, looking at websites, and LEARNING! Most of the time, you only learn the names of the houses on your campus.

I'd also like to see better relations with the NPHC, cultural, & locals. I think it would be great to be involved with other sororities on our campus. We would get to know their organization & they would know ours. Hmmm...
I think I'll have to think of ways to organize this kind of stuff.
If you have ideas, let me know.

ditto for the above -

btw - not knowing about other fraternities and sororities other than the ones on your campus isn't too bad if you go to a huge school with the majority of the groups, however, it is a HUGE issue when your school only has 2 or 3 of each (like austin peay).

it was really weird coming to school here and at first the members of other sororities and fraternities would be all like, alpha gamma what? is that a local?

grrrrrrrrrrrr...

ttt

The first thing that irks me is when you're talking to a GDI, somehow being a Greek comes up, and they say, "No way are you a Greek!" as if it's a social disease or something. If they only knew how unbecoming that is!

I agree that there needs to be a firmer push towards Panhellenic thinking. When I was a pledge, we had a fairly long pledgeship, and Junior Panhel, which really taught us a lot. We ALL knew all 26 NPC sororities, what their pins looked like, which were on our campus, and which weren't. Now, there's just not the time - there's barely time to push your own sorority's policies, let alone Panhellenic's.

The third would be that, by senior year, most greeks are burned out.

People who think that service & professional GLOs aren't real GLOs. Yes, we are different kinds of GLOs with different focuses, but we're GLOs just the same. :)

Sort of along the same lines: people who think that unhoused GLOs aren't real GLOs or are worse than organizations that have houses.
