What is so sad, is that many people have misconceptions about Greek Social Organizations.
What they see on the local TV news is not the only and total things about Greeks.
Greeks on their respective campi have to have house prices very compariable to not only dorms but apartment rental.
Granted, when you add dues in it will add costs.
But in weighing out what one gets for it, it is a very small price to pay.
What you get in dorms, a few friends in college. What after?
In a Greek Organization, you have Brothers/Sisters for life.
If nothing else as was said, sign up check it out and see waht it is all about!
Oh, not to mention, having fun, learning how to lead, learning a little about a small business, and doing something for the good over others in charity events.
I was the first one in my family to go to college and the only one who has ever been in a Greek Organization and it was and is one of the most rewarding things in my life. Just ask any He/she on GC!
