The latest announcement of a balanced man scholarship for male Penn State underclassmen is another way the fraternity is trying to rebuild ties to the community.RD Matthew Ontell is doing a good job of spreading the "Balanced Man" concept, not just among Greeks but in the larger college population.
This is a move the whole greek community should embrace. Ever since the greeks' initiative for "a return to glory," we have seen more lofty rhetoric than action.
Interfraternity Council (IFC) President Ben Jabara said the IFC is "proud of their new attitude toward greek life" and will support the rebuilding effort in any way it can.
The IFC should try to encourage other fraternities to follow Sigma Phi Epsilon's example, and the Panhellenic Council should also follow that trend.
