Ok, I'm a bit confused here. On this forum and other forums, I have seen more than a couple of prospects who have "questions". As an interest myself, I just want to know what are these "questions" that seem so important that you MUST find them out from a BGLO member over the 'Net? If it was such an innocent and open question, then you could ask a member on your campus, right? Wrong, that's why I think most ask the questions here.
I don't think anyone is steered in the wrong direction or should be discouraged when someone says do your research. If you hear something enough times, don't you think there is some merit to it?
When I decided to pursue membership in a BGLO I read everything I could get my hands on that had to do with the subject. This means, use your LIBRARY and yes, the Internet. If you can't find out what you need to know by the public route, then it must not be for you to know.
It seems like everyone always wants to knock members of BGLOs when they can't find some information. And yes, I have seen those that seem to think they can speak in any disrespectful manner to a member and still expect to find out what they know. All behind the guise of their screenname. Be yourself, be respectful, attend programs and continue doing the things you need to do in order to better yourself as a person...TO ME this is all you need to know.
Sorry for the long post guys, but I feel like sometimes people are just afraid of a little hard work. No one said the road that leads to Greekdom would be an easy one.
I am not in anyway referring to anyone personally, but speaking in general, because as an interest I've seen this subject pass my way w/o a response too many times.
Take Care,
Cookee
