So far two posters have indicated who they would NOT want to be....when the point of this thread is who you WOULD want to be. There is no reason that comments have to be made about those organizations that you dislike. Every chapter of every organization is different. While one group may be the favorite at one school it may not be so at another chapter. I understand that everyone has a right to their opinion, but there are members of every organization that visit these boards and to put down their organization simply becasue if you were the other gender you wouldn't join them is unfair. I would venture to say that the members of those organiztions that have been mentioned as those the other sex would want to join are flattered - and rightly so.

I am not posting simply because the one poster said he would not want to be a part of my organization...I am posting because each and every organization has incredible members, creeds, social events, and philanthropies that make campus life and greek life all the more richer for them being in it.

I am not trying to cause a disruption, fight, anything negative with this post as there seems to be enough of that going on. I just would like us all to be more aware of the words we choose to use. I do not think anyone would like their organization to be singled out negatively. Remember, the commitment and dedication you have to your group is the same for the members of the organization you are putting down.

As for my own answer to the question, my undergrad school has only one other national group at this time. Therefore, I cannot say what I would choose to be based on this. I feel I would be able to make a better choice on a larger campus with the chance to interact with the numerous other groups where I would be able to learn more about their organizations.


Just my thoughts...
