Gentlemen (brother Greeks),
Please excuse me. This is the first time I've looked at your forum and the first time I've posted anywhere but the general forums.
I just want to let PotentialPledge know that I've been known to say that on occassion, but always in jest.
TKE is an outstanding organization, as are most national fraternities. If you believe in the tenants of the founders of this particular organization, then go for it.
Rivalries are a part of the Greek world, and so are those catch phrases. This one was around when I was an undergraduate in the sixties -- and will be around probably forever. Nothing is meant by it but some good rivalry fun.
Remember that in many ways, all Fraternity men share a brotherhood and, to some extent, a common heritage no matter what letters they wear.
Best of luck to you.
