College Freshmen
I just want to make sure that I got this right:
It is not uncommon for college freshmen to arrive on campus before the beginning the academic year to participate in rush. A few days later, most of these teenagers will be pledges of Greek Letter Organizations.
In short, Greek Letter Organizations are asking 17- and 18-year olds to make a lifetime commitment to their organizations based on a weeklong courtship. This commitment will be before a student has participated in freshman orientation, attended his/her first collegiate class, etc
Is that wise? After all, college students will change majors, roommates, dormitories for various reasons. But Greek Letter Organizations are asking for a commitment that will last longer than the future marriages of these students.
Maybe I just don't get it. There is so much from my first year of college that I would like to change.
