I can't do anything. I am an alum. I can organize for a very large sum to be organized, I can help create a corporation, I can probably even donate a bit - but I cannot require or force anyone to do what I want no matter what. And it's frustrating me to no end. No fraternity has found housing unless they were here for a century. Property values for a 5 bedroom are $1 million +. You would think these kids would wisen up. I've sent in the point and requirement suggestions to other members and to the undergrad listserv.
And Sikes, I promise you that no matter what you'd love to believe about brotherhood and all that, there will always be drama, there will always be differing opinions, arguments, fights, things that make you wish you could beat someone's head in and question why you joined. But at the end of the day you are at least given the opportunity to be in a position that let's you decide, argue, support your interests through a powerful organization.
