See that' s what I am saying!. Is it Mocha that talked about doing your research? Of course if you are interested in something you have to do the research, that is not the point. The point is that even if someone is asking a question that you deem to be ignorant, there is no point in being rude and answer in a rude manner. Yes you have greek forums, and yes people should take advantage of it but. In ALL occasions you are representing your fraternity or sorority and in all occasions, no matter how ignorant the question may be, you need to learn to respond in an appropriate manner. Not every person who will approach a greek person to ask a question is interested and even if they are IT DOES NOT MATTER. Let' s say a student comes to you and ask you what you are about and you blast him or her off, comes to find out down the line that this same person is a voting member of an organization that allocates funds to student groups, If your brother and/or sister goes to that group to ask for funds in the name of the sorority or fraternity, whether or not you should be considered as individuals will not matter because that same person you blasted off will remember how he or she was treated by a member wearing the same letters and at the end of the day you may not get what you needed. Not only as individual we should ALWAYS be respectful of other people no matter the situation, but in the case of greek organizations, what you do as an individual IS GOING TO AFFECT THE WHOLE group. Now I already see you saying that "Well I can' t babysit every person that goes on asking me stupid questions", and you are right. You can say whatever you want to anybody you want, but there is ALWAYS a way to say things. At the end of the day, THE ATTITUDE THING IS DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR IMAGE. The person you spoke to will have his or her feelings hurt or whatever and will run their mouth about your group and tarnish your image as a sorority or fraternity. Whether or not it is envy or whatever does not matter, the damage is done. If sororities and fraternities are in the business of serving the community, they are still a BUSINESS AND SHOULD BE HANDLED AS SUCH. If you work tommorrow in a company, are you going to blast a customer, a publicist, or anybody that is not in your company and that does not depend on you? I don' t think so. Anyway that was just a though and again I am not rying to offend anybody. Have a blessed day all
