Hello all Greeks, I have been thinking about this topic for a year now and am glad to see others have also. I like all the ideas people are putting out there, here are a few of mine...
1. Push the role of Leadership that GLO's give you. As women (and men, but I am speaking from the Women's side of this)we aren't all getting married and staying home with our children after college. This is what we need to push how Greek life prepares us for life. I know that in AGD I have been prepared for work in my field of Government. I'm sure there are many examples out there.
2. Along with ads we need to write to Teen Mags about Greek life, talk about rush and hazing, also answer questions that are being asked on here to all of us.
3. Alums who are educators need to wear letters on dress down days and talk positivly about Greek Life.
4. We need to return to our high schools and speak with the Sr. class about greek life. I know that my high school had senior days. You can have talk about what you have gained from going greek. Talk about the pride you have on the days you wear letters and when you hear of a sister/brother in the news (I know that everyone I know found out that Amber is an AGD from Survivor 2).
Another thing to express to HS students is that High School Sororities are nothing like College GLO's. I know that some of my sisters weren't going to join a sorority in college because they were either in a HS group or saw the effects of them. Since we have defered rush they were able to see the differences.
Let me know about the letter writing and I will do my best to help!
