[Erik P Conard]

perhaps Sigma Alpha Iota and Phi Mu Alpha now consider themselves as "social."
But I doubt it. On some campuses, maybe, on others they are wannabees....pure and simple.
Phi Beta Kappa, the first greek letter outfit ('cept perhaps Kappa
Sig and the U of Baloney), demanding a strong g.p.a. plus other
things. Phi Bete will not charter a lot of schools and half of ours
with NIC, NPC, etc groups do not even have a Phi Beta Kappa chapter. It is co-ed, prestigious, and means more on the outside
than being a Beta from KU or MU! LOL...please, no offense!
If those of you who claim to be social, then be...and consider the
IFC and the social role at your conventions--no in-between.
But those of us who love our social fraternities and sororities will
always feel a cut above....for lack of a better description, as we
give far more, do far more, and receive far more.
If this is offensive, so be it.
P.S. I had to have a 3.5 to get into Sigma Delta Pi, the Spanish
honorary. Some of those, though, could not find their ass with both hands. But, to each his/her own, from the distant past to
the present, and we will pass the torch...and change will come
about...but our hearts will tell us where we belong....
