Make your own GLO!
 
Just for fun -- if you created your own sorority or fraternity, what would it be like?

I know we all love our orgs, so you don't need to say "mine is perfect as it is!", cuz well, that defeats all the fun.

Bad 80's flashback. I met a girl in a bar with Gamma Alpha Sigma letters. I asked her where her sorority existed (assuming it was a local). She said it stood for Guys are $hit.

And to add to that...there is a local in NY called Sigma Epsilon Chi and they are not the "slutty" sorority. I have NO idea why anyone would pick THOSE letters.

Almost as bad as Eta Pi chapter. :eek:
