Tip for new actives

Sit on a committee. You will learn more about how your org runs, and that gives you insight on the bigger things. This is a great way to build leadership skills.

Don't wear 8 pieces of para at a time.

And some advice a good friend gave me many years ago... "take half of what you want to say and keep your mouth shut". In other words, listen more and talk less.

Lastly, have fun! You did a lot of work to get where you are, and you know many people want to be in your place. Don't be a snob. Show everyone that being an XYZ is a fun part of your life (and rewarding).

Excellent advice!

If you work within your Fraternity/Sorority you will enjoy it more. If you enjoy it, then others will see how you feel and do things. They may then wonder what is so special about Your GLO and want to check it out!

If you bad mouth another GLO, that will just make others want to check them out!
