I think it is shallow to question why people joined what they joined. They did it, accept it, and move on.

Unless you are going to pay their dues, I really would not worry about it.

Besides, if all you saw to the D9 was the stepping, letters, and colors, then I would venture to guess that you really did not to your research into each org to find out what we are about. Stepping and such are just a part of who we are.

and conversely, i know LOTS of people who rush NPC/IFC just for rush week-the parties, socializing, free liquor/hookups and what not. and in the case that PNMs really DID want to be greek, i've known some to say "i want to join the red/blue/pink/green/yellow/purple ones" or "the girls with the crown/frogs/squirrels/rabbits."

if theyre paying their dues and enjoying their time in their org, and dare i say, being a productive asset to the org, then i say, keep on keepin on.

Agreed. I've always said that people don't need to justify/clarify/prove anything to anyone who isn't paying their dues.

the point of a fraternity/sorority/social org./whatever is to make college suck less for its members

as a member, your duty is try your best to make college suck less for your brothers (sisters, whatever) and it is their same duty to you

everything else is just extra trappings
