healthy
I not only think it is healthy..for TKE...to have posts and views from other groups, but we are not closed to new ideas, either.
Several, though, miss the points made and perhaps are clouded
in defensiveness needlessly.
I never said the NIC chapters ought all to have houses. TKE and
others have existed for decades without a house on various campuses...for whatever reason. I do think one gets an added
experience by having lived in and operated a chapter house. I
cannot conceive dorm living, though, with fraternity closeness.
I never said the NIC chapters ought not to go on to commuter schools, and they, in themselves, are hard to categorize.
The differences we all have within our Fraternity simply points out
a diversity within which...is healthy. Serving on committees as well as being a volunteer...is good, but we do not always get our
agenda through. I have been in service with TKE over forty years, was a "hatchet man" at conclaves, and have seen a lot of
change during these times...some good, some not.
However, gentle reader, I am addressing TKE and perhaps other
like GLOs, mostly NIC (I salute the Phi Delts & Kappa Sigs for having the GUTS to leave NIC). Those who do not necessarily
"fit" are certainly welcome to express yourselves in here. Who knows, we might learn a thing or two!
