One perspective:
We were required to send a rep to attend the weekly PanHel meeting.
As I've vented about before, we also did the Greek Week stuff. The Greek Week events were cool and it was fun to mingle with the other GLOs. Many of them were in our classes and close pals of ours, anyway.
But the problem is that BGLOs were relatively new to the campus and were excluded from almost everything until the BGLOs, themselves, pushed for more visibility and consideration. There was also an issue with the BGLOs having fewer members. It's difficult to delegate tasks regarding PanHel meetings and events like Greek Week when you have fewer members to delegate to. With fewer members, it's hard enough running the yard and having tons of programs a semester (
) for your OWN organization without having to take overall GLO stuff into consideration. So we opted to focus on running the yard and having tons of programs a semester (
) and often got criticized for being separatist and BLAH BLAH BLAH. However, the separatism definitely worked both ways but actually BEGAN and was mostly perpetuated on the opposite end.
