It's "Phi Gam!" NOT "FIJI."

I did not spend an entire semester of my college career being "educated" to be a worthy brother for us to call ourselves "FIJI!" The only chapters of Phi Gamma Delta where I have visited and enjoyed myself, are ones who proudly go by "Phi Gam." I have yet to visit a Phi Gam house with brothers who wear "FIJI" hats, "FIJI" T-Shirts, or bumper stickers, that could present at least one member who would be capable of completing even half of the pledgship that real MEN endure in order to become a true brother of Phi Gamma Delta.

The phrase "FIJI" is dead. Phi Gam is a fraternity, not a fucking club! Limit bids to legit heads. While the chosen are pledging, make them earn it!

Fiji is all over your national page, mensa. I suggest if you dislike it, you should have pledged another fraternity.

Congratulations on writing the most obnoxious post I have ever read on GC ever.

Just because a NICKNAME (not even full name, I might add) is not made up of Greek letters does not it any less legitimate of a Greek organization. You don't see me flipping out when I heard Alpha Xi Deltas being referred to as "Fuzzies". I don't like that nickname, but I know it's just a nickname and it by no means cheapen what my organization stands for and what it means to me.

Stop being that guy who puts importance on such arbitrary things. Absolutely nobody likes that guy.

I'm guessing "thegoods420" is from a chapter who doesn't like their Nationals and wishes their chapter would secede.

Well, based on his post in the hazing thread, that may very well happen.

Yeah but isn't Fuzzies kind of downplayed by the A Xi D national office? Fiji is pretty much the exact opposite. I mean not that I agree with him busting his big boy panties over it, but I didn't think A Xi D included Fuzzies in new member materials, PR etc.
