Because people are scared to be individuals and are thirsty for popularity and acceptance.
They will tell you its about community service and networking, but its just an easy way to make friends, nothing more, nothing less :yeshrug:

Modern day Greek life is so far removed from the purpose of the original fraternities and sororities. Just my $0.02

There's a thread made on this every 4 months. Here's how it will go

Non-Greeks: :scust: at paying for friends, letting another nikka beat you, etc

Greeks: :umad: you dropped, networking, bytches

The real answer: know what you're getting into, do what makes you happy/comfortable. Basically you got a clique if nikkas you can rely on and a lot if bytches that'll be on dikks because of it. Also from what I hear, it's what you make of it.

im too prideful of a individual to join a frat, some of the stories I heard about the whole initiation process is just :scust: it's just certain stuff I can't let another man do to me and not do anything about it, just how I was raised.


I did go to a que dogg convention with one of my homies and it did give me a different outlook on it from a connection and networking stand point but its just not something I was never into.

Life is what you make it .... brehs .....

I heard through the grapevine, letters or an organization don't make you, instead it's you making the letters or organization. So if you are joining to showboat, then you're missing the point....so what's so great about a fraternity is the service a collection of men can provide back to the community ..... so I've heard anyway :coffee:.

Black fraternities have been in the community for over a 100 years. 100s of thousands of black men have done there part to build a better black community.....its a work in progress. Its a historical thing, so if want to be part of this particularly piece of African American tradition then research and go from there. If not, then make your own African American impact, and it's still all good. :manny:

HBCUs are historical traditions, if you want to be part of it, then attend one of the 100+ institutions and/or send your kids. If not, go to an PWI, and still make your own African American impact. It's all good.

We are Black History Month in the flesh, so just make an impact for good.

BTW: Deltas are having their National Convention in Houston this summer, not far from where I stay. So if you are in a frat or not, it should be a great venue .... to provide some service. :sas2:

Broomsticks in their asses, a cool jacket, and a decal to stick on car. They get to hang out with others with self esteem issues and wear the same colors as well
