[The Original Ape]

I get the impression your question seeks the reader's opinion on which organization is culturally the best. I hope I'm wrong. My take on it is that no culture is better than the other. Every culture is equally important and equally valuable-depending on who you ask. When a person decides which organization to join, they should consider what is important to them personally, and then look at the prospective organization and see if the organization promotes and commits to the same virtues. As for culture and Greek-lettered organizations, it's a natural part of one's decision. People gravitate to people who share their interests. I decided to pledge my fraternity because it was founded by African-American men FOR African-American men; and I'm African-American. Also, I liked and believed in the principles of the founders of my frat, and the chapter I pledged did what they could to practice those principles.
