Oh please, oh please don't leave a "coming soon" space on your homepage!

It's one thing to put that on a sub-page, but not on your homepage.

Put a badge pic or something. Steal this from your National site if you have to:




ETA: THANK YOU!

Also, just to be accruate ... Farmhouse and Triangle Fraternities are also NIC members who don't have Greek letter names. From their websites .. Triangle doesn't seem to be International but Farmhouse is.

But unlike Acacia (and Sinfonia), neither Triangle or FarmHouse use a Greek word as their name, which is the claim that TechTransfer is making about Acacia. I imagine that's why the Acacia national website words it this way: "Acacia distinguishes itself from other fraternities by being one of three (inter)national fraternities that uses a word instead of Greek letters; Acacia is the only (inter)national fraternity to have a Greek word rather than Greek letters as its name."

To maybe corect you a bit, it is Phi Mu Sinfonia.

Acacia, Farm House, nor Triangle use Greek Letters.

DA Senusret At Pitt State they taught ous abourt Greeks and it is right to correct Fellow Greeks about their own organizations.

I am glad to know that Drama and the Law will not be a necessary seminar for me.

TechTransfer, one thing I would suggest is going around to all the sorority meetings at the beginning of the semester (with notice, of course!) and introducing yourselves and asking them to submit names of unaffiliated men who they think would be a good addition to Acacia. When I was an undergraduate member a fraternity did this every semester and always got a handful of new guys from the process.

None, except that Tom thinks AF was riding him for saying Acacia doesn't have a Greek letter in its name, when she was actually riding him for correcting me on the name of my fraternity and getting it wrong himself.

I think you mean "corect"ing you.

This is bringing back certain flashbacks of a certain thread in which a certain someone tried to "school" me about a certain university which has a co-op program, as well as a certain sorority and a certain fraternity.

AlphaFrog, if you'll look at our website now, you'll see the 'coming soon' banner is gone. Any other critiques on it?

GeekyPenguin, that's an interesting suggestion. I don't think anyone on this campus has ever tried that, but I'm all about new ideas. I'll give it a shot.

And on the name subject- Acacia is a Greek word. It's originally the name of a plant, a bushy evergreen with gold flowers that grows in the middle east. Acacia got it as a name because it's significant to Freemasons (being one, I would know). But the word is very definitely Greek.

That is true, but I also said that it was not part of the Greek Alphabet.

I'm not trying to be a douche about it, but I've seen a lot of great advice in this thread and I'm wondering when I'm going to see an expression of gratitude.
