SigEp and GC in this week's Time Magazine!

I just got my new Time Magazine in the mail today (the issue with Google on the cover), and on page 52 there is an article on SigEp and their Balance Man Program. The article is one page, and a pretty good read.

GC is mentioned as a place where there was a lot of debate on the Balanced Man Program. Since they gave the url, I think we'll be getting a lot of new visitors soon.

That's quite interesting! i'll have to look at our copy at work.

If we do get more visitors, they'll likely be a little better than some of our other recent visitors. Different demographic and all

Some of the fratty people are cool -- at least they're funny and don't have their heads up their asses, and aren't, you know, writing gay hazing porn while pretending to be on a crusade like some longtime posters on this site.

Here's the article, but the URL to GC is incorrect:

I think there's been a lot of good, balanced debate about BMP here, and hopefully it will stay that way. It honestly from the threads I've read seems about 50-50.

Give me a break, the Balanced Man Program?

The only time, Time has something good to say about fraternities is when they destroy themselves from the inside.

Awesome.

According to some members, there's an unexpected bonus from all these reforms: women seem to like them. "They can go to 21 other fraternities to get drunk," says Oregon State SigEp member Cameron Saffer. "Here you find respectful young men."
Sig Ep must be doing something right.

Not to be cynical, but this could open the door to a whole variety of spammers looking for college students, especially Greeks.

I just read the article and had my daughter read it as well since she will be in college next year. I think it's wonderful and hope it's successful.
