I am not hating on general councils, just that from my experience in organizing Greek Week and going to those God-forsaken awful meetings with ignorant leaderhsip was not something I want to do again.


But, here's to unity and looking good for the school paper!! ::rolls eyes::

I totally, 100% feel you on this. I sat in on a Greek President's meeting at my school and walked out early. There was about ten minutes worth of important discussion about matters that were relevant to the campus, and then the next hour of the meeting dealt with different orgs arguing over the specific rules and policies regarding a recruitment brochure. I left before the Greek Awards planning debate. I hope the student body wasn't too upset.

I'll admit that the NPHC orgs on my campus have had some differences and rivalries, but our discussions at meetings are necessary only to make sure that two or three orgs don't have important programs or functions scheudled on the same day. I swear that most of the archaic rules surrounding fraternities and sororities on campus were made because of IFC/NPC organizations.
