What is Sigma Kappa like on your campus?

[Tom Earp]

Each Scool and Chapter different. That is about it, period.

Would love to entertain a SK Chapter at My College along with others to help Greek Life Grow!

Still, not a good idea to post something like this on a Greek Site!

As I said in the beginning, I'm just trying to get a feel for what other chapters are like, and the organization as a whole.

I realize that you all think this is a bad idea to have people post what their opinion of the chapter at their school is like. I already said that if you have something bad to say then PM me. You know what chapter I'm from, so you know whether you can tell me or not.

The reason I posted here as opposed to the Sigma Kappa area is that I feel I can get more objective answers from people in other GLOs. Obviously if I ask another Sigma Kappa what her chapter is like she is going to say it's wonderful. And obviously no one has posted anything negative yet so things are OK.

I realize that I can get information on awards and such from the National website as well as chapter websites. However, not all the information I want is on these websites and many chapters don't have webpages for me to look at. Short of traveling the country and visiting every chapter, this is the best way for me to get some information.

I understand why some of you don't think it is a good idea to have this thread. If you read my original post thouroughly, you would see that I don't want anyone to post anything negative or anything that might be interpreted as negative. Perhaps you should go back and read it again.

AOIIalum: My chapter IS the best for me and my sisters, and you are right, that is really all that matters. But you can understand my curiosity. Getting other people's opinions on other chapters is not going to change my love for my chapter.

greencat: I have not been able to attend convention yet, and probably won't be able to for quite some time. Also, we have not and are not planning to have any workshops with other chapters. Even if we did, I'm sure I wouldn't meet that many other chapters, there are over 100 active ones out there. And as I sait above, I doubt I'd get an unbiased opinion as obviously any SK that I asked would undoubtedly say that their chapter is the best.

So I hope that I have cleared up my intentions and expectations for this thread.

I know you mean well and are just curious..and that you don't post often, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. That said, I've seen many similar threads start out neutral and go down hill very quickly. But you can't say you want to know how ALL the chapters are if you don't want anything negative (or having the potential to be negative) posted. Not every one of our chapters is going to be the highlight of every greek system in the country, so chances are the first time someone says "The Sigma Kappa's at our school USED to be alright, but now they're fat and dumb and have lower numbers than the rest of us", things won't be gravy any more. I'm not trying to chastise for starting the thread, it's just that I don't want to see it end that way.

In your mind you meant no harm. You're given the benefit of the doubt. You're not the first to post a thread like this. However your sisters on the board ,as well as others who've been on the board longer than you, are kindly trying to tell you these kind of threads turn into a mudslinging fests very quickly. We've all seen happen no matter how innocent the intent behind it was.

Also keep in mind that representatives from your National Office may lurk on GC from time to time.

there is already a thread on the subject in SK's forum

Now that everyone has put in their piece can we finally let the thread die now? It was not a good idea & I'm looking forward to it drifting away!
