Cooperation through Appreciation

[AGDee]

The Lambda Chis at my school were a great group of guys. One of our Chapter founders married a Lambda Chi and for many generations now, the Alpha Gams and Lambda Chis at that school have been very close. From my era, at least 6 of us married Lambda Chis and I know that there were several Lambda Chi/Alpha Gam marriages in the 90's and I believe there has been at least one in this millenium too. They used to do a 20's Gangster "Lock In" for MDA in my era and it was always a blast. They were also one of the few fraternities that didn't haze. Upstanding guys on my campus (even though I divorced the one I married..lol.. the rest of them were great).

And, so as not to ask for another Alpha Gam compliment, how about one of the other Syracuse Triad.. Alpha Phi

[DSTRen13]

Well, I don't know any Alpha Phis or too much about their org, but I do love how they say "Fee" instead of "Fie". It's cute and unique

I know a LOT of Alpha Gams, who I love to death Very sweet, down-to-earth, hard-working ladies who are a blast to be around.

Tippe, I hope you meant that as a joke. This thread was created to encourage positive sentiments towards all greek organization members. Let's try to keep it nice in here.

[KDLady06]

I was just hoping that people can reserve their resentment for every other thread, and this one can simply be a positive and happy one. Tom didn't say anything negative. Let's try to forget our conflicts for once and keep all our comments in this thread pleasant.

Anyway since nobody new has posted in awhile, let's say something nice about the fabulous boys of SAE - ready go!

Every Zeta Tau Alpha I've ever met has been an intelligent, classy lady.

Alpha Delta Pi:

I love how many represent themselves in a positive way here on GC.

I appreciate their Macon, Georgia heritage.

I drool over the many variations of their beautiful jeweled badges.

Chi Omega:

I love the mascot, the Owl. I think it's one of the cuter mascots.

Thier Purpose states (copied from thier wewbsite):

Throughout Chi Omega's long and proud history six purposes have guided the direction of every chapter and brought its members unequaled opportunities for personal growth and development. Those purposes are Friendship, High Standards of Personnel, Sincere Learning and Creditable Scholarship, Participation in Campus Activities, Career Development, and Community Service.

I love how participation in campus activities is included in that, as I fear sometimes people forget that there is life outside of a sorority.

While there isn't a SDT on my campus, I have to say that I enjoyed researching it on the internet!

I am a gemologist and I just love their jewel...lapis lazuli! It's very regal and so unique. Also, their philanthropy, Prevent Child Abuse America, is outstanding. They are making a difference in the lives of many children. Kudos to you, SDT!

I was enganged to a Delta Gamma. She and all her sisters were great. Had a very strong sisterhood. The DGs at University of Memphis (my grad school) were very classy and together. I also like their motto "Do Good".

[EE-BO]

I don't discuss my GLO affiliation here because I think it lets me speak a little more freely on opinion-based topics that may not necessarily reflect the view of my IHQ or chapter (with which I have an Advisory position.)

But I would like to say that Tom Earp has been a tremendous friend and resource for me. In my duties I have a lot of work to do, and we have had many conversations where he shared ideas about creating alumni associations and dealing with budgetary issues that have had a tangible positive impact on my service to my chapter.

I ain't even a Lamda Chi and this guy is helping me out.

Whatever disagreements between Tom and others are your business and I am not interfering or passing judgment.

But after all he has done for me these last few weeks, this is the right thread to say a well-deserved public thank you.

[KDLady06]

Yeah for all the greek spirit action on this board! If you don't have an affiliation or don't want to name yours, please just list one so that the game can continue! Thanks.

PS I love the little gamma/salute things the DGs do, I love the diversity of girls in Chi Omega, and I obviously love SDT's philanthropy since we have the same one. Prevent Child abuse America!

Ok so let's do um Gamma Phi Beta!

[PeppyGPhiB]

Eeeeeew....

Well, to get this back on the positive track, I'll say something nice about DG: every year during rush, one of their door songs stuck in my head all week...it was so catchy, and I know i'm not the only one that liked it. "Drop your anchor, come and be part of our fraternity, we love DG, so will you, if you drop your anchor, too!"

[AGDem]

How about Sigma Kappa? I really like the Sig Kaps on my campus, they're really nice and down to earth, just all around great girls.

[honeychile]

I've only ever known one Sigma Kappa, but when her aunt & uncle were unable to conceive a child for over a decade, she carried their baby for them. I was amazed by the depth of love she showed by that one gracious act!
