Greek Unity
This is a post I copied from another "What is XYZ like..." thread.
originally posted by NUPE4LIFE:
I don't really like post like this. I'm sure Phimugirl that you had good intentions though. I just feel like the organization as a whole is bigger than the chapter. We all know that on cetain campuses an organization is not as popular as it might be on another, but it's still Phi Mu or whatever. I took an oath to Kappa Alpha Psi, not to my chapter. I don't care what people think of my organization on campus, for Kappa is the same everywhere you go. We're bunch of brothers for which Achievement is our main purpose.
Well said, NUPE4LIFE! I am so tired of hearing "Whats XYZ like...blahblahblah..."
Chapters will vary...brother/sisterhood will not (or should not - if it does then there would be a question...). If you want to know what a group is "like" somewhere, then email them and say "hey - I'm going to school here next fall and want some more info on your group"...or at least go under the organization's forum on here and ask.
And no, I don't consider myself to be the "thought police" and I know you have a right to post your opinions...I just think these type of posts are leaving the door wide open for unnecessary and perhaps untrue criticisms (of the alcoholic, loose, etc...variety). After the incidents on this board recently and in the past (of the Hatchett/Carol C variety) we really need to be sticking together to promote Greek unity.
