I've been thinking about whether there was a golden age in collegiate Greek life. Was there a time period that was the "best" time to be Greek in college?
So many things have changed with programming, recruitment (please change it back to rush), pledging, etc. that I wonder if one time in history was better than another.
Would you rather be a Greek collegian now if you've been Greek a long time? Or would you like to go back to a different time if you are currently in school? Does any five to ten year span in history appeal to you more than the one you were in?
I was in college in the late 80's and I'd be hard pressed to pick a different time. We still had frills rush, Greek life was pretty popular, risk management wasn't such a huge issue, etc. Not sure I've seen another time I would like better other than the opportunity to be there at the founding.
The only other thing that comes to mind is hearing the stories about everyone taking trains to Convention and so on. It would be fun to have had that experience.
When was the best time to be a collegiate Greek?
