First thing, is that I think we all understood the point that Stan was getting at and I don't thinki his intention was to be rude. We have all said things like that.

To add my info, as I said when I first got to college even before becoming a new member I though Greek life was a four year deal, so when I became one that's what I expected. However, as I became a more involved member and to this day I am a Lifer. Being an AGD (Alpha Gam..sorry guys Im use to saying AGD)has given me so much. Ive met many sisters from different chapters (and not just from on here)and have had sisters who I have from my chapter, who I've known for a sort while and thoses whom I have never met do so much for me. I credit AGD and my school experience for the person I am now (along with other things). And I am trying to become a much more involved alum.

Some other stuff to throw out at people....

Alot of us have talked about saying,"I was/used to be an XYZ" vs. "I am an XYZ". Does anyone when talking to a person who they find out is Greek listen to see if they are going to say one or the other? I know a few times I have and sometimes when someone ask me where I was an AGD at, I will say I was an AGD at so and so, but correct myself and say I am an AGD from such and such school or chapter.

What do you think about Greeks {collegians or alums} who only talk about partying? I have an associate (ok-ex-close friend who I occassionally still talk to) who is an alum of ABC and all she ever talks about is their partying and I feel like saying didnt you other stuff??

What do you think about chapters who's members talk about things that their chapters probably shouldnt be doing, and the members dont care and act as if nothing is wrong?

These are just general questions and have nothing to do at all with any specific chapter. I just think they kind of go along with the whole 4 yearer vs. Lifer topic. Anyone feel free to throw out stuff and swing it a different way.
