Why go Greek?

I have very specific reasons why I'm glad my daughter is in a GLO and why I want my son to join as well.
1. The bonds of brotherhood/sisterhood are forever. It is a powerful network that can help you your entire life.
2. Being a Greek gets you involved with philanthropy in a way that is fun and rewarding. Hopefully, you will carry this with you and continue giving back to your community.
3. College is more than books and being Greek helps you develop social skills and promotes involvement. It adds structure, discipline and goals.
4. It's a great support system.
5. It gives you an opportunity to break away from the old home town syndrom and expand your thinking and horizons.
5. I would think there are two different "college life" scenrios. You can go to class then sit around your apartment/dorm OR you can be a part of something wonderful, exciting and huge. At the heart of all major campus events are Greeks. I want my kids to be a part of eveything (well ALMOST) college defines.
