I think it is kind of hard for prospects to understand things like colors and "why are they so mean" issues unless you have been enlightened by others. I am fortunate to attend a school where we all just KNOW the 'do's/dont's", but i most definitely was clueless when i first got here. And even if i did do research and read a book or something, it might not have been that easy to swallow.

Yes there is no policy stating do's and don's. Which is why I think Having BGLO Forums should be held each semester on college campuses. These questions where very eye opening at the very little people know. While research is key, I believe these forums really can help for ALL of the questions that could fit into 2 hours were answered. These were only a small, small portion but out of the approx. 300 students, most of them left greatly informed and on the right track.

Before my MIP, I was very, very, VERY uneducated on Greek Life. I didn't know the first thing when it came to "proper etiquette" and boy oh boy did I have some embarrasing moments. I attended a greek forum and an informational and was highly enlightened! lol

At this forum, did they talk about the proper way to express interest? If so, how was it described?

Though there are some good insight/suggestions and what not, I'm hesitant on where this "conversation" could lead. Thanks for everyones input
