Acacia is a Greek word.
Where is the freaking confusion here?

I am glad to know that Drama and the Law will not be a necessary seminar for me.
TechTransfer, one thing I would suggest is going around to all the sorority meetings at the beginning of the semester (with notice, of course!) and introducing yourselves and asking them to submit names of unaffiliated men who they think would be a good addition to Acacia. When I was an undergraduate member a fraternity did this every semester and always got a handful of new guys from the process.

None, except that Tom thinks AF was riding him for saying Acacia doesn't have a Greek letter in its name, when she was actually riding him for correcting me on the name of my fraternity and getting it wrong himself.

I think you mean "corect"ing you.
This is bringing back certain flashbacks of a certain thread in which a certain someone tried to "school" me about a certain university which has a co-op program, as well as a certain sorority and a certain fraternity.

AlphaFrog, if you'll look at our website now, you'll see the 'coming soon' banner is gone. Any other critiques on it?
GeekyPenguin, that's an interesting suggestion. I don't think anyone on this campus has ever tried that, but I'm all about new ideas. I'll give it a shot.
And on the name subject- Acacia is a Greek word. It's originally the name of a plant, a bushy evergreen with gold flowers that grows in the middle east. Acacia got it as a name because it's significant to Freemasons (being one, I would know). But the word is very definitely Greek.

That is true, but I also said that it was not part of the Greek Alphabet.
You can piss and moan all you Chillen want!

Of course, nobody ever claimed it was.
Glad to be of help, TechTransfer.
