In response to Poets comments:
As for Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., ALL fraternity business is held in secrecy. Meetings are off limits to everyone, to include bruz who aren't financial. When a prospective starts the MIP, he isn't in a formal meeting, but he is being given information that is specifically meant for him. If MIP was a public process, then all the info passed would be done in public. But it isn't....it's done in privacy.
It also teaches the prospective about discretion and learning through association. So to invade the process with MTV's cameras eliminates elements detrimental to the survival of the secrets of the organization. It sets a precedent for public dissemination. I cant emphasize how important the tenet of discretion is... and initiated members know just what I mean.
It'll be interesting to see where MTV goes with this....
ROOOOOO!!!
