While I cannot speak with 100% certainty about any other BGLO, I know that my organization was not founded to merely satiate a social appetite. It was formed to meet a need of African American students on a predominantly caucasian campus. I feel that it is my duty to remember that, yes we are social but we take greater pride in our community service activities than our partying. I am not self-diluted in preaching the high standards of my fraternity. I am also not blinded with visions of grandeur to realize that there are problems which persist, some that we have made.
