Greek Life is Fun

College Life

<p>Well… I had my probate last night #3 the Anchor of I.S CONFLICT, Greek life is definitely different on the other side, </p>

<p>A warm hello to the other greeks of CC.</p>

<p>IPHIT</p>

<p>Congrats on crossing into Iota Phi Theta! Enjoy your time as a neo. Remember this one thing: being greek is a lot harder than being in the process.</p>

<p>I used to be infaturated with Alexander the Great. But then I found out that he was probablly into boy love, and that sorta ruined it for me. But if you’re into Greek stuff be my guest…I’m moving over to study cultures outside the Occidental sphere…when I get time I’ll get involved with the History of Japan.</p>

<p>A year later and I can defintely say being greek is a lot harder than I thought it would be. I am now a prophyte, and a lot more is expected of me.</p>

5

<p>wow, i can’t believe you dug this thread up, pretty crazy.</p>

<p>But word, no matter the letters, greeks do it better.</p>

6

<p>what do “greek people” acually do besides party?</p>

7

<p>They do a lot of different fund raisers and vollunteer work. Fraternaties are far from people who just party. That being said, I have no interest in them :)</p>

<p>Well at my school, they had better grades (fraternity GPA was a 3.2, all men’s average a 2.98, sorority average 3.36, all women’s average 3.18), they performed more community service, they were more involved on campus </p>

<p>[ul]
[<em>] there hasn’t been an independent student body president for more than 25 years
[</em>] they made up greater than 85% of the two most prestigious senior honorary societies
[<em>] they routinely make up more than 80% of Homecoming Royalty
[</em>] they make up more than 75% of student government senators
[li] at one point 95% of the Student Alumni Association Board of Directors were Greeks[/li][/ul]</p>

<p>The majority of donations to the University come from Greek Alumni, and they have a much higher rate of joining the Alumni Association at all levels of membership.</p>

<p>And they party.</p>

<p>All this despite being only about 15-16% of the student population.</p>

<p>Heh, those stats sound similar to my undergrad school, bigred, since nobody was affected by what the student government did other than the greek organizations. Generally we didn’t even have enough students running to fill all of the senate positions that were available.</p>
