Thumbs up

What ktsnake said!

As the Founder of the Local, I spent a lot of time the first year, oh only year as a local.

But I also knew that I had to have grades. That was the main thing in college.

But, the local was first in my heart.

Did I get a Degree, yes, but did I learn more from what I did as a member of a Greek Organizatin, YES!

A degree will get you up the first step of getting into the real world. But learning from being in a Greek Organization from being an Officer or just the interaction is so much more important. That is what recruiters are looking for.

A 4.0 is great, but are you a toad when it comes to interaction of your new peers?

That is What Greek Life can help you do, not be a toad.

The world is not flat, it is well rounded, just like Companies what their new hires to be!

You have to just say hey, I have to have a little Me time. The door is not availabe from so and so time to when ever, leave me alone unless it is a crisis! Well, maybe even then, there are other Officers who should be able to cover things. Make that known.

Just go for it and Bestest of Luck!
