ShawnUTK,
I agree very strongly with 33girl and LiL_G.
I myself have parents who were and are still against the fact that I went greek. But then I have an aunt and uncle that are greek so that helps out during thanksgiving and christmas. The way I look at is I am my own Man and I make my own decisions. Dont let anyone push you into making the decisions that you want to make, because ultimately you want to do whats right for you. I had guys on the rugby team that couldnt understand why I pledged Beta but they got over it and I really didnt hang out with them once I became a Brother. But that was their loss. If you become a part of greek life you'll find out that you'll have plenty of time with to make friends outside your Fraternity. I certinally did

If they decide otherwise its on them and they werent really your friends to begin with.
