Wow, that is a great list and these are some good ideas. I'm the new member advisor for the local Gamma Phi chapter and one thing that we stress to our new members is time management. It can be overwhelming to freshmen, being at a new place where there are no parents around telling you exactly what to do and when to do it. Plus, there are meetings and parties and mixers and...the list goes on and on! So they fall behind on their schoolwork and the next thing you know, their GPA has taken a dive.
And I can't agree more with the person who suggested stressing the lifetime commitment. You'll only be a collegiate for 4 years, but you'll be an alum for the rest of your life.
