The funny thing is girls can be worse. I friend of mine was in sorority and for her hazing they made all the girls stand on a table in the underwear. Then the members got magic markers a circled the places the girls needed to loose weight.

*rolls eyes* I wonder how many of those girls would call them selves "pro-women's lib" when they partake in such degrading acts as that.

<< Seeing that with just about any fraternity you join you make friends and CONNECTIONS for life, how exactly is that renting. The amount of help you can recieve from your brothers in the future greatly surpasses any dues you have to pay while in school. Think about that before you bash it next time maybe. >>



The implication here is that it requires a frat to make connections and friends. This could not be farther from the truth.

Frats, at least where I attended school, were nothing more than a excuse to party. Academics for most of them are only an after thought. If frats really cared about their organizations, they would do more to clean up the ones that exist only to party. Sadly, this is not the case.

I am sure frats would be viewed much differently if they required their members to maintain a 3.0 or better avg to stay in the frat.

GDI is really the only way to go.

i totally agree with the comment how its not "buying your friends", but instead pooling your money together to have better events.

at my fraternity I actually saved loads of money by joining a fraternity. Since we owed our house rent was dirt cheap approx. $370 a month and that included food being cooked for you everynight. Don't know many places that i could have gotten that deal on my own. Fraternity life taught me a lot about living and working with people that were totally different and at Hopkins we allowed for a social outlet for students on campus. In parties yes, but we also always had people just hanging out with brothers at our house so they could get away from campus life.

I was friends with people in almost every house at hopkins and dont think i would have had nearly as much fun in my undergraduate years if i hadnt joined. I also met so many people that I would never have hung out with, except for this common thing we had. I am now friends with such a wider arrange of people then 4 years ago and i think its great.

really? did your friend tell you this? because it's almost exactly like a scene in a movie with that chick from the sitcom "blossom" i think her name was six. the movie was called "Dying to Belong" or something like that. pretty good flick (for a made-for tv movie), it also had that zack guy from saved by the bell starring in it. i don't know why nbc stopped making cheesy teen dramas.

all I have to say is for those of you who haven't experienced the type of brotherhood in their fraternity as I have in mine, I feel sorry for you and your fraternity, because that is all a fraternity is or should be about.
