Post PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!

OK...I have a question for all greeks. Are your parents supportive of your decision to go greek?

Here's why I'm asking this question. Neither of my parents went greek when they were in college. When I was looking into coming to LSU I was contacted by the girls of Sigma Alpha. I was really interested in joining and I talked it over with my mom. She was totally cool with me joining as long as I didn't let me grades slip. Unfortunately, my dad was not very happy about me going greek. He had the perception that all I would be doing is partying (which couldn't be farther from the truth).

Anyways, here I am...in my first year as an active member. My mom is still really supportive of my decision. I think she sees that I really enjoy it and it's done wonders for me. My dad on the other hand still is very much against it. We just had a discussion of how he thinks my being greek is bad and that it's my first priority instead of school. I tried so hard to make him see that my grades have actually gone up since I became greek. All that resulted from the convo was me in tears and him telling me that I need to quit the sorority.

What should I do???? I love my sisters but I also love my dad. I don't want to give up the sorority and I don't want to disobey my dad. I'M SO CONFUSED!!!!!!!
