At almost all colleges there is some sort of Greek system. The question which plagues many college students is whether or not to enter into this system.
Yesterday, while reading an article in the Indiana Daily Student, I ran across an article which reported graffiti findings in a bathroom stall. On the wall near the pisser, among all the dirty jokes and random comments, was a little debate concerning the greek system. All entries were by seperate authors.
It read as follows:
Entry 1: "FIJI is the biggest bunch of fags I've ever come across. I'd almost rather live in Collins than hang out with them." (sidenote: Collins is seen as a haven at IU for artists, intellects, and other 'outcasts').
Entry 2: Why do you hate Greeks so much?
Entry 3: Because the 'comradery' inherent in your 'system' is a greek-imposed facade masking the true meaning behind what you stand for - that being corruption, malice, and sodomy."
Entry 4: I've never heard of anything involving corruption or malice going on in my house."
Humorous indeed.
But I ask, are there any nubblites out there who is or is considering going greek? I think there are positives and negatives on both sides, but what do ya'll think?
Personally, greek isn't the way for me. I might go through Rush one year just to make connections, both otherwise, it's just not for me.
