I do wish that my chapter would have lived more by the vows that we took at initiantion (not saying what they are, of course). I am just saying that i think that people blame greeks cause they have this opinion that Greeks act like this, ie hazing, drinking, ect.
I don't haze, never participated in hazing. I actually left my first university because they hazed. however they called it dorm initiation and said that it was not hazing cause the students agreed to particiapte. however, this same university that allowed this dorm initiation to occure would not allow greek organizations on campus because they (greek letter organizations) hazed and had curruped (sp) morals.
I am just saying that people think that greeks will do horrid things and they cant see anything else, even if there were 100 women who didnt drink, do drugs or anything, but there was one that was caught the rest of the greeks would have the reputation of being like the one. I hate this and think that it is really really closed minded of people, but that is just what i see in this world. I dont like it, nor do i understand it. I wish that people can see and would take the time to see the truth and not the sterotypes.
And as far as what you were talking about your creed. i agree. my sorority is based on religious values and i wish that more people cared more about the values that their organizations were founded on and less on the partying and more negative aspects of greek life.
well, now that i have said all that i think that we are saying similar things but maybe approaching it from different sides.
