Extension criteria....

Maybe we oughta cut each other some slack, in all fairness...
Like...the old Union Triad has maintained a radically different
attitude towards expanison say, than, Delta Sigma Phi. In some
cases they have died rather than change, others have gone to
the co-ed route, much water over the bridge in post-secondary
education...hardly an elite thing these days...
And the less-selective, like TKE..have gone into the (heavens!)
teachers' colleges and extension and streetcar schools...
And even further, some former professional ones, like the boy
scout Alpha Phi Omega, have entered the social realm.
So, it is like comparing apples and oranges in many cases, and
in most, each is correct in their own way of thinkin'
Comments on this? We have come a long way, like I said a bit
ago, since Mark Hopkins and the Log...if some of you have ever
read educational history and can use this analogy.
The rank-and-file greek of today would hardly fit with the Beta
at old Indiana Asbury (now DePauw).
Please take no offense at this, it is simply that we all have grown
quite far apart, and we each love our own club....but we try to
hang in there together in a hostile world where many are not friendly towards us...ignorance, I say, but nonetheless there.
