it should be. What we've done, in the community, in past years was honorable, noble at best. Was it progressive? From a benchmarking perspective, maybe? From a "what makes the world go round" perspective, I think it was probably counterproductive. That's just my opinion.

I joined the Frat for various reasons. I was under the impression that the Frat would support all of them. In fact, from what I saw (success and money) I just "knew" it would. Misread it.

At this point, from what I see you're saying, if a brother is looking to forward a specific social agenda, he should look onward and upward. If a brother is looking for venture capital and/or angel investing, he should seek monies outside the Frat. Isn't the Frat one lawsuit from broke itself? Wouldn't it behoove Alpha to be a little more capitalistically inclined?

Anyway, I guess if you're right, then I was under the wrong impression of the Frat and all it had to offer. But since my Alpha opinion is as "right" as any other duly made member's, I'll continue to go on record with "the social agenda Alpha is on, has worn out its use (mostly) but since most in the Frat still find it somewhat necessary; we would probably be better served to create a more diverse base of initiatives including some financial ones."
