Numerous exposés on university Greek life have brought into view issues with hazing, binge drinking and endless partying, leaving the public with an inaccurate view of what Greek life is really about.
Sure, we all know us Greeks are a little crazy sometimes. I do not know of any other type of organization that subjects freshman girls to the August heat in dresses and heels for almost a full week in order to become new members.
However, Greek life is not just about rush, socials and fraternity band parties. It includes leadership, philanthropy, academics and friendships that cannot be explained.
As a new writer for Greek Speak, and proud member of UGA’s Greek community, I am going to take it upon myself to shed some light on our activities and motivations. I want to give answers to those who question what we are about and give Greek organizations a chance to share their latest accomplishments.
With that being said, I hope everyone has a fabulous and SAFE spring break. I’ll see you next week… I am going to pack :).
