TSteven you are correct a member of an athletic team can red shirt there Freshman Sophmore Junior or Senior year. I played soccer in college and alot of girls reshirted there freshman year because they new they weren't going to get alot of playing time and did want to lose a season of eligibility.

Most athletes there sophmore junior or senior redshirt for medical purposes hurting a knee or ankle preventing them from playing. However if a person has participated in more then a certain number of games in the season they will not be eligible to reshirt. Medical also includes mental reasons illnesses sometimes a person can even get a redshirt for family problems an example might be if God forbid someone passed away. If anyone has any questions I know alot about things like this feel free to PM me

They read all the scholarships that each student got (its a small school, so its do-able). One of the African-American girls got some kind of "Delta Sigma Theta" scholarship - I didn't hear exactly what it was because I wasn't paying that much attention, but I noticed because of the Greek letters. Is that common, for BGLOs to give scholarships to incoming freshman? Would that imply their interest in the girl, so that she might say to someone "well I'm going to be a DST in college"? Or might it just be because her mom/sister/grandma was a DST?

I know many (not all) PHC Sororities that give out scholarships to non-members. I have found in my scholarship search a few sororities that have member and non-member scholarships. Just thought that i would add that to the topic.

Ditto with IFC chapters.

Many chapters, grad and undergrad, award scholarships to nonmembers, especially to graduating HS seniors. A lot of times it has nothing to do with BGLO membership in the family or a taking of interest in the recipients as far as future membership, it's simply a to further the education of a rewarding student.

I'm sure some high school students take it to mean that this gives them some brownie points later, but it really doesn't do zip. Common sense should tell you that especially if you received a scholarship from a sorority along with 5 other girls and 3 other guys... but I guess the guys can put that down on their app. if they try to go Omega? :rolleyes:

When I was a senior, I was a DST debutante, but that didn't have a thing to do with anything once the cotillion was over... it was a matter of who in my city was having a cotillion. :cool:

None of the above, although some people try to make it about all of the above.

My brother got a fraternity-sponsored scholarship about 10 years ago and 1) the fraternity didn't interact with him enough to have an "interest"; 2) he has never had any interest in Greek Life; and 3) we have no members of that fraternity in my family.

My brother just received a scholarship from Omega Psi Phi...they gave him a framed certificate and even declared May 3rd his official day within thier chapter...it was very nice and I was impressed! Due to my influence on him, I'd be shocked if he pledged anything other than Alpha however!!

I hope your brother follows his heart without consideration to who gave him a scholarship and his brother's influence. :p
