I was actually in a real program that wasn't attached to an org, but happened to have a lot of Omegas and Delta working on it. (The leader was an Alpha Chapter Que.)
And it was literally just a Rites of Passage Program. Afrocentric, community based...really great stuff. And even though looking back, I can see that elements of what we did had parallels to a "process" the superficial parts were taken out. No jackets, no shirts, no calls, no stepping. In fact, the only thing I have from that experience is a little piece of kente cloth and a notebook.
But that's all one really needs as a teen, isn't it?
In fact, sometimes I wonder if we'd have the same number of members in NPHC organizations if wearing para and stepping were outlawed, but that's another topic.

I am apart of the Kappa League in Chattanooga, TN. We step, but that isn't what the Kappa League emphasizes. Neither is the emphasis on jackets (which we don't have), kanes (we have), or line names (we have). Our emphasis is put on Brotherhood and Community Service. We took two and a half months to get to know 11 people that we barely had ever talked to. Only seven made it through the process of us being on line. We've put in work at the Ronald McDonald House, numerous Shelters, the Community Kitchen, and of course, at our school. I know that doesn't justify why some would waste their time to join another frat, but it happens. It's just not goona happen with me.

Every generation has its idea of "cool" and "fun" and every generation has people who think that "cool" and "fun" are unnecessary.

You should be no generation's idea of "cool" and "fun." Children are to be seen and not heard.

Define the word "Child." You arguing with one you call a child doesn't make you anymore of an adult than I. Thank you.
