Research on the Greek system

[clara06]

I will talk about the informed consent process with my advisor. And I will send emails directly to people I find on the official fraternities or sororities website, so that I'm sure they are not trained monkeys.

Thanks anyway

If you find the subject interesting, continue with your preliminary research by all means. But do know that at the core of Greek life is ritual, and that is something you will not be able to collect much information on. I would suggest that you start looking at fraternities with "open ritual" which means that their ceremonies and ritual are open to any member of the public. I would also suggest contacting college NPC or IFC groups via email or phone and asking that they send a message to all members. This way you might be able to get first hand information from active members.
