You also probably want to be sure something like this is OK with BYU as I realize they have more stringent rules for their students' off-campus activities than most colleges.

This may have changed drastically since I was in high school, or prior to Recruitment, but I visited several chapters prior to entering college. Maybe I was asking the right people in the right way, but the only time I wasn't invited to visit a chapter was when they didn't have their house completed.

Don't take this the wrong way, but that was a long time ago.

There are just too many creepy people out there nowadays. It's one thing if they're a fellow student (and can produce ID) but a random off the street? I wouldn't have even done that in sleepy old Clarion.

Never from just off the street - I just asked whomever was showing me the campus, or if I saw a bunch of greeks sitting around if they ever showed their house to future students. Of course, at 16, usually with a Visitor Badge, I really didn't come off as Jack the Ripper.

Go through the right channels, and I'm fairly certain that you could see at least one chapter.

Hello All:

My friends and I are creating a Greek Organization, a Co-Ed one to be exact. We've spoken to our student Activities personel and he suggested to get many things, such as insurance. We are currently in the process of writing our constitution, and i would like to know about what each executive of a greek organization does. thanks!

Every Greek group has different titles for offices and different duties for those offices. Sorry, can't help you. Figure out for yourself what YOU want each office to be for instead of biting off other groups.

I know what a sorority is, but it's the who that matters to me.

Personally, I think I'd be planning on looking into the preppy/popular sororities so any help that could be given would be very appreciated!! Thanks

Ask some of the girlfriends of other brothers that are going to the formal.

If you don't know any of them, try looking at the chapter's website for pictures or ask him if he has any pictures of last year's formal.

(For those who are wondering why I didn't say "just ask the guy!" - you obviously have never asked a guy what appropriate dress is for an event and ended up wearing a cocktail dress when everyone else was in khakis.)

thanks so much

Do you have any advice in general about going to a formal because I am not in a sorority?

I don't think it's a big deal.

I've attended fraternity formals as a collegian and have seen sorority and non-sorority guests get along just fine.

Btw, if you're not Greek, then why are you wiscgreek?
