[The Original Ape]

I think it starts in the process. The process should impart knowledge and that sense of brotherhood to new members. One must learn before they ever are greek the responsibilities associated with it. But even before the process it begins in the members we select. It infuriates me to go to a chapter full of dudes who exemplify the three P's (p****, pub, and paraphernalia). God forbid they do some real work. Stepping and chanting at a party doesn't mean anything. Getting up at 9am to do asopt-a-highway means something. Being an active brother (financially, academically, social is LAST). We shouldn't be selecting people who will attract other members, or that will give us status...I would rather have my chapter die out than return in ten years and see some slack *** people running it. Our "hood" can be the stuff of tradition, but it is up to the current members to place it on that pinnacle. We are the present and our presence is what the future will be built on.

Hey Bruh,

If I didn't do it earlier, welcome!!!!!!!
And I feel you on that.
