For those out there who don't understand why we have a problem with those semi-Greek and Greek-like organizations out there....

The problem is confusion of identity in the public eye. We as Greeks must be cognizant of our public image due to the fact that while we serve the public in our programs, our membership and practices thereof are not open to the public. People fear that which they do not know. People tend to 'make up' explanations for things and rely on heresay. The public also can get groups who are similar confused in terms of who the members are and how they behave. We have enough problems trying to police our own members without having to defend our reputation because some other group is jocking our colors, letters, traditions and symbolisms.

Besides, isn't there already a G-Phi-G (Groove Phi Groove)?
