WHAT MAKES A BROTHER
 

GREETING BROTHERS...I AM POSTING THIS MESSAGE TO SEEK ENLIGHTMENT FROM THOSE WHO MAY BE MORE SEASONED IN THE BROTHERHOOD THAN I AM...I HAVE RECENTLY CROSSED THE BURNING SANDS THROUGH MIP, HOWEVER I HAVE DILIGENTLY STUDIED AND I AM WELL VERSED IN MY HISTORY I HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF COMING IN CONTACT WITH SOME OTHER BROTHERS WHO RECENTLY CROSSED WHO CHALLENGE ME AND FOUND ME ACCEPTABLE AND ASKED ME WHERE I CROSSED WHEN I INFORMED THEM THAT IT WAS THROUGH A GRADUATE CHAPTER AND I ONLY DID THE WEEKENDS THEY SEEMED TO FIND FAULT IN ME NOT THAT I DID NOT KNOW NY HISTORY BUT THAT MY PROCESS WAS NOT PHYSICAL. THE ISSUE I HAVE WITH THIS IS THAT I THOUGHT THE PROCESS WAS TO DEVELOP ONENESS AND ALSO EDUCATE THE GENTLEMEN IN THE PROCESS IN THERE HISTORY. DUE TO THE MANNER IN WHICH I WAS ABLE TO RECEIVE MY INFORMATION AND HAVE IN DEPTH STUDY I AM AS VERSED AS MANY BROTHERS WHO HAVE HAD PHYSICAL PROCESS. THIS LEADS ME TO MY QUESTION...

WHAT MAKES SOMEONE A BROTHER...THE FACT THAT THEY KNOW THEIR HISTORY AND WORK HARD FOR THE ORGANIZATION OR THAT THEY PLEDGE HARD FOR A CERTAIN NUMBER OF WEEKS AND RECEIVED BRUISES AND SCARS?

PLEASE RESPOND REMEMBERING THAT THIS AN OPEN FORUM AND WE ARE STILL WHATEVER THE CASE ALPHA MEN.

Quick answer to a troubling question
 

Brother Iceburg:

Of course, the current MIP policy is the law of the land. The individuals who questioned you are part of the reason why organizations pay exhorbitant insurance fees, extensive investigative time and outrageous lawsuits.

These are also the individuals who will Bit@h and moan when the chapter is sanctioned or snatched. With any luck, they will be caught before any damage is inflicted. The individuals who sign anti-hazing forms must have an understanding that the forms are not a suggestion... often times, however, in order to fit in... they go along for whatever is dealt....


Ahhh, yes... the 8th, 9th and 10th jewel always have something to add... But they just prove Shakespear correct....
