Well, I think you find some of the brightest people who are Greeks on this site!
I was talking to a guy who I am trying to get Polo Shirts done for my Fraternity, ( I do not wear T-Shirts ) for something I can wear with my colors on so when I go some place, I can annouce I am a LXA!
Yes, times are different today than they were 30 + years ago but are they really?
Do we have rudderless people who will be running the Country in our life time?
What you learn from being a Member of a Greek Organization is more measurable than you think!
We as Greeks learn how to act socially, Proffesionally, and to work together at times!
You learn to compete and vie for titles in intrumurals, charity work, and leadership of your chapter!
Yes we all have the ones who say, hell, I just wanted to be a member when I was in College! I am a member for life and will always be! I am still involved along with a lot of my other Brothers who I got back interested in being a Brother!
Someone looking at your first resume will say oh you were a member of a Greek Org. What Offices did you hold, what did you do to help your Organization?
All of the recruiters know that you have a wider area of responsability than just living in a Dorm and going to class to get your degree!
YOU are a Mover and shaker not a go along with!
I have had many College Grads come in my Shop and I see they went to a local School, In Kansas City that is a lot say they wished they had joined as felt had missed so much!
How about 12 schools, very strong schools if you ask, I can name them but lost on this thread! Well Big 12 schools, UM, UK, KSU, MU, Neb, OK, OKU,
How about next down, Pitt State, Ks, NWMoU, CEMO, SWMOU!
Food for thought!
Be a Greek you will learn more and do more!
