bad Greek week schedule

[OnePlus69Is70]

This ever happen to you? All the Greek Week events are in the afternoons, when everyone in my house is at class, so we can't participate in anything.

Do they usually do them in the mornings?

[OnePlus69Is70]

They usually do them at night, or on the weekend. The mornings wouldn't make any sense either- people are in class or asleep. I'm not talking afternoon like 5 o'clock- this is 2 o'clock, 3 o'clock.

How dumb! We never had anything start before 6 or 7 PM. Who is the brain trust that thought up this schedule?

[AXO Sweetheart]

We had most of ours at noon, 3, and 5. It was really stupid, I didn't get to do anything but Greek Sing because of it.

It's tough to schedule Greek Week stuff since many people at our school have jobs outside of school. I don't really think there is a *good* time you can schedule the stuff.

Our greek week is spread out over the whole year, most events are at night or on the weekend.

Our events are usually late afternoon or early evening, same with our Homecoming events. But, we make ours mandatory, only way to get out of them is by being in class, b/c it's on our calender, so people usually ask off for it.

the girls and guys had different sports, guys having more events. so for us, we had events like volleyball and soccer that were on the weekends or after 7.
the guys had more sports on different days during the week and events started either at 3 or 5.

Greek week at csus tends to be the week that many greeks skip class. which is probably why they pushed it up this year instead of having it right before finals week.

How is it "Greek *week*" then?

[PM_Mama00]

We usually have ours a few weeks before finals, because like no one goes to class. Ours are done starting at like 11am and the last event could start at 11pm.

5 I can see or like 3 or 4 on a friday. I'm thinking the people who set up your schedule used to run Greek Life at my school. Sounds like something they would do. How can you expect to get good attendance if you hold them when people are at classes? This just sounds poorly planned out if you ask me.

The first year they changed it they called it "the Greek Odyssey"

More like Hades.

They canged it because people were cutting class all week long and then we would have the blood drive the same week with Greek sing.

It stinks that you wouldn't be able to go!! The whole point is to get as many people there as possible to raise money for that charity. Not to make it so no one can go.

I'm curious, which organization sets the Greek Week schedule? My campus it was Greek Council (IFC/Panhellenic).

[SigEp42]

Our Greek week, is only a week in name. But I actually like how its spread out over the year. We have 3 or 4 blood drives over the course of the year and collect charity after every semester. It means we can raise more money and collect more blood.
The people that set our Greek week are separate from IFC/ Pan-hell. There are two Greek week overalls with one assistant and one business manager. There are one guy and one girl for overall and one of each of the other positions. Its the same way for each of the events too.
