I don't know how it is on other campuses, but I just don't see the support from the school when it comes to Greek Life. Looking through my chapter history, trophies, correspondences, etc Greeks used to participate in two or three times as many activities that were geared just for them. Greek Olympics, Greek intramurals, social events, interfraternal community service, etc. Now, it's a bitch to get all but a few frats/sororities to participate in Greek Week. Only about a quarter sign up for campus awards and such...

The greek office can't be counted on to do anything. IFC is a bunch of lazy jerk-offs that spend the entire budget on taking themselves out to one really expensive dinner.

Even when fraternities did win awards there was nothing that benefitted that frat. Nothing in the campus paper, no recognition, nothing.

Total apathy it seems.

What I dont understand is why so many parent seem to be against their kids paying dues, and no im not talking about financial dues. I oculd be mistaken, but when one gets into the "real world," people arent going to jsut be given things becuase they got a job. Similarly, I odnt understand why fraternities should initiate members, based on the sheer fact that they are given a bid. When I went through pledging, I was expected to show that this wasnt an extracurricular activity, but rather a decision that I mad fore life. I dont think anyone should get a free ride by not having to prove that they want it. Thats why i know where pledges are... in their dorm rooms studying or at the fraternity house eating cookies and drinking milk right? Haha.

You all that are responding seriously are missing the point of this bump. The reason this thread was bumped was so the "In Crowd" of GC could reminicse about some fun times they had being bitches to another poster.

No real substance, just some collective chuckles of how "boy we got her good, didnt' we?".

You mean so the "In Crowd" of GC could remember the batshit crazy girl who created a fake identity on GC, got busted for perping, came back and created another fake identity on GC, got busted for perping AGAIN, and actually STALKED GC members IN REAL LIFE.

Also, you're wrong about why this thread was bumped, but thanks for playing.

I didn't know GC had an "in crowd." Where have I been? Apparently, not with the in crowd.

I think they're refering to the very passe H & A and Death Squad.

All wrong. When you say "au contraire," you must follow it with "mon frere" in the most dreadful French pronunciation possible.

I hope we don't have to discuss this again.
