Harding / Sigs

I think it needs to be made clear that Harding, although a fine university, certainly plays under different rules than most state universities. Koinoinia, I'm sure you are simply expressing your feelings, however, I feel you are not very accurate or showing your fellow Christian students much respect. Although Sigs may have had a reputation of being more on the party side of Harding, I know many current Sigs and former Sigs that have made life-long friendships through the club and its activities. In a report on the Little Rock news station, one former Sig made a statement that seems to fit this situation well. He said, "If Jesus was a student at Harding, He would have been kicked out a long time ago." Harding simply plays under its own sense of morality. Forgiveness, in most situations, is few and far between. To those that belong to actual Greek fratenities and sororities, please do not look at this situation, or comments about this situation, with disdain. Although social clubs at Harding use greek lettes for club names, they do not represent anything greek. Nor does Harding accept or allow greek organization.
I think Harding, and it appears many of its current students, needs to get a grip on what they want to represent to the rest of the college community. Specifically, kicking people out of school, disbaning social clubs, or regulating rules that are ridiculous for anyone to follow, is simply starting cast an evil light on what is essentially a great university. I hope God has a little more forgiveness than is expressed at Harding.

So, just so you know, my wife was a "queen" for Sigs during a very difficult time at Harding. It was that group of guys that both of us owe a lot of gratitude to. We have maintained life long friendships with many of the guys, who although not perfect (who is?), still have compassion and show a true spirit. Honestly, the Sigs at Harding, probably showed more of greek spirit than any other club at Harding. For that, they should be commended. Good luck Sigs, in all you do.

Former Harding student, Sig friend.
