worried
I'm worried about our Greek system. I'm afraid it won't last the decade. In the past 10 years, average chapter size is down more than 50%. The system has gone from 1800 to 800. Average pledge classes are below replacement size. Last spring, 5 houses had no pledges. Three houses folded last year- one mostly because the brothers were more interested in dealing coke than being a fraternity. There's very little social interaction between houses. The men's houses are wrecked. Greek Week was lame. And the opinion on campus is that Greeks are stupid alcoholics.
So....I dunno. I could use a ray of hope right about now. I know my house will last while I'm here, but that's not much comfort. Ugh. Anyone got anything that will cheer me up?
