Professional fraternities and sororities

I never imagined myself joining a sorority when I was growing up, but after staying with Chi Omega as a prospective student, I changed my mind. College was totally new territory for me, and I had no support system at William Woods. I was searching for a sisterhood, group of friends, and something to push me to better myself daily. I found all of that and more upon joining Chi Omega. The other houses had their strong points and some great girls, however none of them compared to what Chi Omega…

When I was first introduced to Lambda Theta Phi Latino Fraternity Inc., certain aspects of the organization caught my attention. First and foremost, the organization promotes unity within the Latino community. Being united as Latinos is essential because together we acquire great accomplishments for the betterment of the community as well as ourselves. Moreover, being united provides the opportunity to demonstrate our capabilities as Latinos and break the barriers society has imposed upon us.…

These are all valid questions. many prospective fraternity members don't realize, and are not informed of what the pledging process and hazing will entail, because this information is hidden in secrecy by the brotherhood of the fraternity.

I know that this story is gruesome, hard to hear and ultimately painful to listen to. But that’s the issue, there’s a stigma around fraternities that ‘boys will be boys’ and that this type of tragedy is bound to happen to at least one out of the thousands of men that enter a fraternity. Especially as college students, we are so used to hearing sirens go off around the weekend that we become numb to the issue at hand. People are in denial about hazing and binge drinking and excessive drug use…

I want to be a Beta Club officer for various reasons. Some of them include working with a team/group, helping others in our community, and being able to gain experience that can be used in the future. I believe that in order to be a good, productive member of anything you have to be able to work and cooperate with others. One great way to practice that is by working with other experienced Beta Club officers and members. When I am given group projects I always make sure that everyone in the…

over view will give insight to this paper. Secret societies have long been a part of the cultural makeup of the United States.
