First of all, let me say that I hope to post more often--especially now that my Initiation into Gamma Phi Beta is official as of two weeks ago! It took 15 years, and was definitely worth it. I'm wearing my new letters proudly.
And I've done a search on this topic, so if I've missed it somehow, feel free to flog me! But the college here, Southwest Minnesota State University, is non-Greek, and I'm not sure why that is.
Is there any way that can be changed? I can only imagine what good having Greek organizations would do not only for our campus, but also for the community and area as a whole. You'd think, with SMSU's standing as the #1 public liberal arts college in the Midwest (for several years running now, according to US News and World Report), that someone would've thought to introduce Greek organzations in an effort to offer students even more opportunities.
Is that something that's decided by the state’s regents, or the college administration themselves? Does that change, and how? Would I be best to start with the college itself, or the National Panhellenic Council to see what they say (please, correct my usage of that orgnization!)? Or do the students decide that they don’t want Greek organizations on campus?
I would love to see the start of something on this campus, and have ZERO idea where to begin. All input is welcome!
non-Greek campus--can that be changed?
