I need to disagree with this statement. In the news coverage you heard, they may not have been too obvious about it, but the stories I've been following have been quite quick to name fraternities, focus on the Greeks at SDSU as a cause of the problem, and portray us in that classic "animal house" image once again.
The saddest part is that less then 1% of the entire Greek SDSU population is represented by the actions of the few Greeks that were arrested Tuesday.
I'm doing my best to spread the word that Greeks a positive influence on the campus of US colleges. Please see my video posting on youtube by
clicking here. The media never shows the great things Greeks do, at least not in any big media way (which is simply the way the media works...i'm not complaining).
Instead of complaining and being negative about how we've been treated by the media in the past, I've taken initiative and started the
Greeks Do Great Things Website (click here) so that Greeks from around the country can show the world the great things that they've done on their specific college campus.
Go to the site, leave a quick note about a positive thing that your chapter has done for your community or campus, and help me change the "animal house" sex drugs and rock and roll image that Greeks are portrayed with.
The world is looking at us all right now. I had nearly 10,000 people visit the blog article that I published on the topic in the first 48 hours that it was online. People came from all over the world, including Shanghai, London, South Africa, Australia, Sweden, and much more.
The World Is Watching!
Show that Greeks are a positive influence on campuses around the country!
