Fraternities and sororities at my school have their highest membership levels since the 1980s. Our national numbers are up appreciably. I can't imagine that we are the only ones. The "numbers are down" business is old news. greeks are popular today. None of this means that we can afford to be any more irresponsible than other students.
(P.S. - Just saw the "blind monkeys" comment - love it)
Lambda Chi Alpha Numbers are up and I expect that as One GLO goes so do We all.

I cannto take the time to check all GLO Sites, but if expansion and Rechartering means anything, then Greeks are growing.

But remember, Naysayers will say and print a lot of stuff to put down Greeks.

I just wonder how many charities would be finacially hurt if Greeks did not do events for donations to them?

How many dollars do you figure We as Greeks Donate?

LXA has the largest food drive in the world, and My Chapter also donates to Ronald Mc Donald House for one.

I am sure there are each of us who have our own Main Charity and some sides ones that We donate to.
