DekeGuy, Huzzas to my interfatrernal Brother of Canada!
I do not and never did consider being in a Greek Organization as being elite!
I considerered being a Greek as a Can do and be involved person! If we do not do it on campus then who will?
GDI tend to be dormers or in apartment houses off of campus and do not socialize with any one group of people. They may have their small circle of friends but not a Brother/Sisterhood of many who have come before and after!
We are having Pierce Stock 7 an Alum who puts on a gathering of Brothers and wives and kids once a year! This is so we can get together and meet new and see old Members of the Fraternity!
Oh Our Chapter only.
If being Greek Is Elite, then it might come from having the higher Grade avg., participating more and getting better jobs after graduation because the companys are looking for people who interact. I am sure each and everyone of us have served in some form or another with the Organization. This too is learning process in college.
Truth being known, I guess I do look down the nose a little as they usually dont to commit to the world of people!
Why do they come back to see the old school? I come back to see and be with my Brothers and their Familys which have become mine and meet the New Brothers who will someday be in our shoes!
