Professional fraternities and sororities

Justice reports that sorority membership is an extreme risk factor for sexual assault. Research has also proven that Fraternity houses, where most sororities hang out in their free time, are extremely dangerous for women. Studies also support the claims that Fraternity men are three times more likely to commit rape than a man who is not Greek. The rate of sexual assault among sorority women is at least 40%, an all time high, and over four times the average rate of 7% for non sorority women.…

In 1908 Israel Zangwill updated the story of Romeo and Juliet to the love story between lovers from Russian Jewish and Russian Cossack families. In his play he illustrated that America was a place for new immigrants to end their old hatreds while they were being molded into being a sole entity : American.

I must be aware of my surroundings, who I talk to, and what I say at all times. Recently, I put myself and Xi Psi in an avoidable and…
