One Size Does Not Fit All

Why Not Go Greek?
by David Moltz

NATIONAL HARBOR, MD. – Though national figures suggest the number of undergraduates associated with Greek organizations has increased slightly in recent years, some individual campuses have seen their chapters struggle with recruitment and retention. In an effort to explore this phenomenon, a new study attempts to profile those students who decide not to join Greek organizations and chronicles their reasons for opting out.

Kristin S. Fouts, assistant director of the student activities and leadership program at Western Michigan University, presented her study before a group of student affairs administrators at a Tuesday meeting of the American College Personnel Association. The study is based on separately conducted surveys of more than 1,500 undergraduates at Wichita State and Western Michigan Universities.

At both institutions, about 86 percent of the surveyed students had not participated in a “fraternity or sorority recruitment or intake activity.” These students cited a number of reasons for not participating. Chief among them, 74 percent of these students they did not care to be associated with the “negative stereotypes associated with membership.” Sixty-four percent of them responded that there was “no perceived benefit” to participation in a Greek organization, 62 percent reported they "could not commit to membership.”

These students were then asked, “What could have changed your decision to not seek membership?” Forty percent responded “overall positive publicity,” and 36 percent said a “clearly conveyed value/benefit.” The remainder said that nothing could have changed their minds.

Those students who had participated in a Greek recruitment activity but ultimately did not join an organization cited most of the same reasons for their decision. Some, however, also noted that they were “not comfortable with the process.”

On a more positive note, many students who sought out fraternity or sorority membership did so because of the influence of their peers who were already members. Sixty-seven percent of these students said their primary interest was to making new friends. Forty-eight percent said the “social scene” attracted them, and 44 percent said “leadership development” was among the factors that made them participate.

Fouts, however, expressed a number of concerns about the figures expressed in her study. Nearly 60 percent of students who did not participate noted that the “source of [their] knowledge/understanding of social fraternities and sororities” came primarily from television shows and movies.

“Though we cannot stop what they see on television and in the movies, we can help debunk what they see,” Fouts said of incoming students and their perceptions of Greek life. “Maybe we can sway the tipping point of students who have some knowledge [of the Greek system].”

Fouts added that the student dissatisfaction with the recruitment process should raise a red flag for student affairs officials. Looking at this data, she noted that Western Michigan recently made a change in the way its sororities can recruit. Previously, sororities recruited in four rounds over the course of three days, often not offering time for students with other commitments to participate. Now, these recruitment cycles are more spread out and allow for make-up rounds.

The current economic crisis has changed the way students think about money, and Fouts acknowledges that perceptions about fraternity and sorority dues are no different. Chapters and student affairs offices, she said, will have to be "line-item specific" as to what these dues are for and how they will be spent to the benefit of the student. She argued that interested students should not be brought to think of their funds as “paying for friends,” as many an old cliché of fraternity life states.

“Students need to know specifically what is going to be required of them,” Fouts said of financial commitments. “If your organization is hesitant to put that out there, then I challenge you to encourage them to be more specific up front with that [for prospective members].”

Fouts and others familiar with Greek issues at the meeting said they were unsure how the economic crisis would impact membership. Still, some acknowledged that those students with only a cursory interest in a fraternity or a sorority might only see dollar signs before noting the potential benefits of Greek life.

Perhaps the most troubling bit of data to those in attendance -- primarily student affairs officers who see the Greek system as a positive infleunce on their campuses -- was that 44 percent of those students did not seek Greek membership because their “personal values conflicted with the perceived chapter values.” Some argued that Greek organizations must be modified to resemble the diversity of their campuses, saying that those that don’t will fail.

“One size does not fit all,” Fouts said. “We can no longer be passive with recruiting.”

Others noted that some of their students were interested in Greek life, just not with any of the organizations that were present on their campuses. Bethany Manley-Craig, assistant director of student development at New England College, said many of the more local fraternities and sororities on her campus simply cannot attract members in the way that national organizations can, even when they do not have a local chapter. For some students, she said, this presents a situation wherein they cannot find an organization that shares their values.

Humberto Baquerizo, assistant director of Greek life and wellness at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, said he believed many of today’s students look to Greek organizations for more than just “foam parties” and other social gatherings. He said many at his institution seek an outlet for community service, advising, guidance and a sense of “family.”

If students do not find these values expressed in the Greek system on their campuses, many at the meeting said, they would find them elsewhere. Most seemed to think that non-Greek organizations have begun fulfilling the leadership and service roles once predominately held by fraternities and sororities at their institutions. This environment, they argued, gives these groups less of a hold on today’s students.

Charles G. Eberly, professor of counseling and student development at Eastern Illinois University, said some Greek organizations could be in danger of extinction if they do not change. He argued that fraternities and sororities should get rid of the “pledge system” by which students must earn full membership. This, he said, would foster a “culture of integrity” among these organizations, something he believes today’s students demand.

“Millennial students react negatively to a culture of entitlement,” said Eberly of something he believes the pledge system cultivates. “If we don’t make changes, students are voting with their feet and these organizations will disappear.”

How Does Your Campus Rate?

Roadblocks to Effective Greek Systems
from our friends at GREEK MOVEMENT

How’s your Greek system doing?
I recently went to the University library and started to browse through some dusty books on fraternities and sororities. One book, “Fraternities and Sororities on the Contemporary College Campus,” outlined four roadblocks to effective Greek systems. I’ll summarize them for you – and add some extra commentary.

ROADBLOCKS:
1) Lack of an Adequate Institutional Infrastructure.
Back in the day, many of the top University officials on campus – the men and women who ran the campus – were Greek alumni. This created a close-knit relationship between the University and the Greek system. Many of these University officials mentored the Greek leaders on campus and served as Greek advisors.

The Greek advisor role over the years has been pushed down the totem pole. Now, on many campuses, you’ll find that the Greek Advisor position is an entry-level type of position with weak pay. Some Greek advisors now aren’t even Greek!

2) Conflict and Competition
Greek award banquets provide good competition, but sometimes at a cost. When the goal becomes building up the chapter resume, it is sometimes hard to work with other chapters on things such as community service, raising money, and so on.

Sadly, when Greek chapters finally do come together – it is usually for an exciting, highly competitive intramural game. Greeks have gotten used to the idea that when they see Greeks from another chapter, they have to put their game face on.

3) Problem Resolution
Ask a Greek Advisor - at times, it feels like most of their energy is spent on resolving conflicts and solving problems rather than creating positive educational activities. With big problems such as alcoholism, drugs, hazing, and rape to deal with – they are often perceived as a parent or principal rather than an encouraging mentor or coach.

4) Failure to Appreciate the Benefits of Greek Life
Because of stereotypes, most academic leaders, parents, and new freshman don’t see the benefits of going Greek. Therefore, much energy must be given during formal recruitment to undo the negative perceptions.

On national level, we can partner together to influence our society through media (blogs, YouTube, TV, etc.) and other creative means to undo the perceptions.

Most importantly, Greek advisors, student leaders, and alumni volunteers must do the hard work of giving their time and energy to seeing lives changed on a local level. We have to be honest that many of the stereotypes are true on our campuses.

If we work hard to bring about reform and change on the local level first, it will only be a matter of time before the stereotypes disappear on a national level.

SigEp to charter Saturday

The SigEp chapter at American University In Washington D.C. will become "D.C. Delta" on Saturday, Oct. 4. Congratulations to everyone who helped achieve this success.
"Our hope is that with our charter and increased presence on campus, SigEp will begin to break those stigmas and stereotypes typically associated with fraternities and greek life," said President Kristian Hoysradt, a senior in the School of Public Affairs. "With this momentum, our chapter hopes to advance its commitment to bettering the greek and AU community, and will continue to focus on the development of balanced men and balanced leaders at AU."
[...]
"I have benefited greatly from the Balanced Man Program," said Robbie Schwartz, a senior in SPA and the chapter's vice president of communications. "It not only teaches and instills the founding values of SigEp, but also the skills necessary for the real world, including business and social skills."

SigEp has the highest GPA among fraternities at AU with a 3.46 average, according to the chapter's Web site.

The university invited SigEp and Pi Kappa Phi in the spring of 2005 to replace two other fraternities that were dismissed from campus. The original SigEp class had 12 brothers, and in a little more than three years, it has grown to a current size of 47 undergraduate members. This fall, the fraternity recruited 11 new brothers - the largest group of new members of any fraternity on campus, Hoysradt said.
Thanks to Undergraduate NBD member Steve Dorsey for pointing out the article.

NDSU Starts Greek Ambassadors Group

Ambassadors share the meaning of Greek Life
By Drew Espeseth
Contributing Writer

Many people have stereotypes of fraternity and sorority life on college campuses. NDSU, a relatively small campus as far as Greek life is concerned, is no exception.

The Greek community at NDSU is comprised of roughly 475 students, which is less than 5 percent of the total campus population.

Members of the fraternities and sororities at NDSU decided it was time to do something about those numbers and those stereotypes, and the idea for Greek Ambassadors was born.

Tony Clowe, a junior majoring in political science and a member of Theta Chi fraternity, was chosen to head up the committee when the possibility of an ambassador program was brought forth last spring.

Clowe said the idea came from discussions in Interfraternity Council, the governing board for fraternities on campus.

“It was a very vague idea at the time, but it sounded like it should be looked into,” Clowe said.
He began his research where any college student would—Google.

“After Googling ‘Greek Ambassador,’ I found a couple of schools who had already implemented the program. I was in contact with some of those students,” Clowe said.

With advice from Coordinator of Greek Life Josh Boschee, and utilizing input from other members of the Greek community, the ideas were consolidated into a plan that would work best for NDSU.

To become a Greek Ambassador, there is an application process each semester. Currently, there are 11 ambassadors, including Clowe.

“While the program is starting small to nail down what the Greek Ambassadors will be doing specifically, there is hope to see it grow in the future,” Clowe said.

The ambassadors have a number of specific goals already in place. The program will strive to increase the communication and understanding between campus officials and Greek Life
“Specifically this will include working closely with the Office of Admission, the Residence Hall Association and the Office of Student Orientation and Success,” Clowe said.

The Greek Ambassadors also plan to further the current goals of Greek Life on campus and provide a formal informational resource for interested students at NDSU.

“We want this to be another way to brand the Greek Community with some of the top Greeks on campus participating in this program,” Clowe said, “and hopefully in the process we can help break down some of the Greek stereotypes.”

UIC Greek Speaks Out

Greek life enhances UIC college experience
Brian J. Egerton

When you hear the word "fraternity" or "sorority," what is the first thing that pops into your head? Unfortunately for many, the Greek System may have a negative stereotype. Some negative stereotypes or Greeks are perpetuated through films like "Animal House," "Revenge of the Nerds," to the more contemporary films such as "Old School," "Van Wilder" and "Sorority Boys."

College Students may see these media creations and believe that Greeks are either "frat boys" or "preppy sorority girls" who are primarily preoccupied with throwing wild parties. Very few people ever hear of the positive things one gains from joining a fraternity or sorority.

Fraternity men and sorority women have used their Greek college life experiences to become presidents, sports casters, business moguls, Olympic Medal swimmers, astronauts, war heroes, famous lawyers, United States senators, engineers and intellectual authors.

Interestingly enough, my experience in the Greek System is blatant evidence of how joining a Greek organization can help make one a better person. It seems from my own experience that I learned the truth about the Greek system, and it is very different from Hollywood's stereotypes.

Greek system participants are some of the most accomplished and well-rounded individuals. From my experience I have found that Greeks spend countless hours doing philanthropies and serving others. Most Greeks are bound by a code of honor to help others and to improve themselves academically, and many of these organizations were created on the basis of the great joy of serving others. Greek organizations are a breeding ground for the future leaders of America.

When I first came to UIC I was extremely shy and introverted ? I came to school not knowing any other person. One day, in attempt to get some free food, I wandered into the Quad event "Meet the Greeks." While I was eating my hamburger I started talking to several fraternity members. I was surprised to learn that one frat man had a high GPA and was successful engineering student. Later I met another student that was the valedictorian of his UIC graduated class and was now a grad student at the University of Chicago.

Later that year I pledged and became a member of a fraternity. I have found the Greek life rewarding in many unique ways. It has helped me achieve more academically. Furthermore, it has given me a chance to learn and implement interpersonal leadership skills.

My outlook on Greek life has definitely changed on how I view Hollywood Greek-themed movies. Since becoming a fraternity man, I have grown from a shy, awkward person to an extroverted, poised and confident student leader.

Joining a Greek organization has made me learn how to plan events and communicate effectively with others. I have traveled to foreign countries for Leadership Academies, and acquired life-long friends in the process. In short, I found joining a Greek Organization to be a priceless college experience.

My Big Fat Greek Life at UT-Arlington

Fraternities and sororities offer campus life opportunities
Story by: Caleb Gremmer
The Shorthorn staff

With the barrage of campus activities marketed to bored students — especially unassuming freshmen — it’s obvious why it is difficult for those new to the university to find their place or crowd.

That said, each semester many students find the cure to their transition anxiety by searching out an active college experience through the campus’ Greek organizations.

Greek life is a term broadly used to describe the activities and experience associated with joining a fraternity or sorority, but it doesn’t completely relate what all is involved. By joining an organization, many students find Greek life becomes exactly that — their life.

“I think it provides an immediate place to have friends and a support network right when you come to school,” said Julie Murphy, Greek Life and University Event assistant director.

One of the most important aspects of Greek Life is choosing the correct organization. Luckily for students, the university offers several groups, each with its own identity.

Along with the Interfraternity and Panhellenic councils, the university also offers the Multicultural Greek and National Pan-Hellenic councils. Among the 29 groups, it is almost guaranteed that anyone can find the right one for them.

Along with general social support, Greek life also provides an opportunity for business connections. Many students find potential employers in alumni or future professional peers in the active members of their organizations.

“Being that we are a Metroplex campus, the networking, in my opinion, is what makes Greek life one of the best groups to join if you really want to advance your career,” said Mike Taddesse, Greek Life and University Events program coordinator.

Many potential members often fret over the stereotypes associated with Greek life, but the university has gone to great lengths to help its organizations live them down.

Modern Greek organizations adhere to strict laws that prohibit mental and physical hazing. Instead, they serve more to promote the goal of the university’s Greek program — to prepare young men and women to be contributing members of society.

“Greeks are everywhere,” Taddesse said. “They do a good job of coming out and supporting university events and athletics programs, so I think Greeks do a good job of bridging the gaps between the overall student body and the administration and the university as a whole.”

Stollman Challenges Greeks to Know Their Values

Speaker inspires Greek future on campus
Meghan Foley

A cell phone ring began speaker David Stollman's challenge to Keene State College Greek Life organizations to remember their values and standards, and break the stereotypes.

"You earn your letters when you're allowed to wear them … by living up to what they mean," said Stollman to at least 84 Greek Life members gathered in the Mountain View Room of the Young Student Center Monday night.

As Stollman presented his interactive lecture, "Buy In or Get Out," excitement and energy became as bright as the colored T-shirts identifying each organization in attendance for the Greek Week event.

"He talked to a lot of people's hearts and made a lot of people cry," said senior Caitlin Ball, a member of Phi Sigma Sigma.

Stollman, who is with Campus Speak, stated the importance of organizations staying true to leading and serving.

One part of leading meant leading in the classroom, while another meant serving, he said.

"This is our true tradition. This is what our organizations are about. This is what all Greeks are about," he said. "We all swear ourselves to the same basic values."

He challenged those who didn't want to adhere to an organization's true traditions to leave it.

"For those of you who don't want to, I hope you leave," he said.

According to Stollman, an alumnus of Sigma Phi Epsilon, Greeks understood the difference between brotherhood and friendship, and sisterhood and friendship.

"Friends say what we want to hear. Sisters, brothers say things you need to here," he said.

Stollman also addressed the stereotypes associated with Greek Life.

"The rest of the world sees your letters and they don't know they are different, and they don't care," he said regarding organizations that promote the stereotype. He added the world thought the stereotype was fine because Greek organizations tolerated it.

"Are we perpetuating or breaking the stereotypes?" he asked repeatedly throughout his speech.

Besides looking at how Greeks were viewed by others, Stollman said members needed "to start thinking about the things [they] were doing."

"The more we perpetuate [the stereotype] the more problems we have," he said.

Hazing is one of those stereotype supports.Anyone who believed in hazing never understood that concept to begin with, said Stollman.

"Chapters that haze the most don't understand it doesn't work," he said. Stollman, advisor to the Alpha Sigma Tau sorority at New York University, also relied on his experiences to enforce what he was saying.

"Him having a personal experience made his speech that more eye opening," said Greek Life Assistant Cory Anderson.

According to Anderson, a member of the Sigma Lambda Chi fraternity, several KSC Greek leaders went to Pittsburg, Penn. for the Northeast Greek Leadership Association conference, and heard Stollman speak along with many others. They then asked him to attend Greek Week and give his speech, said Anderson.

"His speech is a good reminder of why we originally joined our respective organizations and to awaken members of the organization that have not realized their responsibilities," he said in an e-mail following the event.

"It was just as good the second time around," said senior Teddy Byrne, vice president of the Interfraternity Council and a member of Delta Nu Psi.

"He makes your want to improve your organization internally and turn it around."

Stollman ended his presentation with five things he wanted Greek organizations to do as a way to reach their potential.
    Those objectives included
  • watching out for other members interests,
  • showing an organization's true values when recruiting,
  • holding members accountable for their actions,
  • seeking opportunities to break stereotypes,
  • and challenging members not meeting the organization's standards and values.
"The entire organizations future rests in your hands," he said.

Colorado Student Union Approves Controversial Budget

Fraternity measure OK'd
By PAULA PANT Colorado Daily Staff Writer

The CU Student Union (UCSU) approved a highly controversial budget bill that cuts funding from most programs on campus and also requires those programs to treat fraternities like official student groups in order to receive any money.

Legislative Council Vice President Chris Kline cast the tiebreaking vote, 9-8, in favor of the Greek Organizations and Autonomy Amendment, which stipulates CU's student, health and recreation centers can only receive millions of dollars in student money if they rent rooms to fraternities at in-house prices.

“I was surprised that it came to me,” Kline said. “You know it's 50/50 and - it's awkward, to say the least.”

Just after UCSU approved the Greek Organizations amendment in its larger budget bill, the group immediately passed the budget bill as a whole.

That bill decreases funding for Nightride, Volunteer ClearingHouse, Program Council, the Cultural Events Board, the Women's Resource Center, and UCSU itself.

The Greek Organizations amendment puts the cost centers in the awkward position of choosing between UCSU's mandate or the CU administration's directive to make fraternities - which are unaffiliated from CU - pay outside rates.

The amendment could also force the CU administration to formally dispute the budget bill.

The amendments' supporters say that dispute would test the true limits of UCSU's power.

Less than an hour before Thursday's UCSU meeting, CU spokesman Bronson Hilliard said this isn't a power dispute - a 1985 autonomy agreement clearly gives the CU Chancellor the ultimate authority, he said.

“We disagree with this as a tactic,” said CU spokesperson Bronson Hilliard. “There's no need to pass this legislation as a way of bringing this conversation (about fraternity access) to the table. We feel like we are already at the table.”
UCSU Representative Medhat Ahmed and Senator Jessica Bralish questioned why a section of the Greek Organizations amendment includes giving fraternities $15,000 for legal fees.

Ahmed said it appears to be special-interest legislation.

“A number” of CU Regents are worried about the Greek Organizations amendment, said CU alumni and Pi Kappa Phi fraternity brother Scott Martinez, who served as UCSU tri-executive in 1998-99.“It's smart for fraternities to try to gain clout on UCSU to push their agenda,” Martinez said at public hearing. “[But] I think the tool that is being used right now is too blunt for this type of endeavor.”

In its larger budget bill, UCSU approved maintaining funding for underrepresented center SORCE (Student Outreach and Retention Center for Equity), awarding it the same budget as last year plus inflationary increases.

A strong faction of UCSU favors tightening the budget, which would lower student fees by reducing some programs.

Another strong UCSU contingent, plus almost everyone who has spoken at UCSU's public hearing, favor funding the programs.

No one in UCSU objected to cutting their own budget.“When we are asking people to look at the programs and find where their deadweight it, I think it would be hypocritical not to do it ourselves,” said Representative Scott McEachron.
UCSU Chief of Staff Ryan Keane said he favors cutting the executive budget, which right now has a balance surplus of $117,000. It's saving in several small ways - for example, at the moment it's employing one office manager instead of two.

CU sophomore Anastasia Maines became the first and only student to ever speak in favor of budget cuts at UCSU's public hearing. Maines said she appreciates UCSU's efforts to be more disciplined and restrained in its spending of student money.

About five to six students spoke against cutting the budget of the Cultural Events Board (CEB), which funds campus speakers and evening programs. On April 18 CEB will bring former United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan to CU.

“We are putting ourselves on the level with the Yales and Harvards and the Stanfords by bringing a speaker of this caliber,” said CU junior and Distinguished Speakers Board Treasurer Katelin Lucariello. “This will be our first year bringing a speaker of this caliber and because of budget cuts it might be our last.”

FROM THE COLORADO DAILY PRESS

Credit where credit's due

If someone had told us five years ago we would some day write an editorial praising fraternities in Boulder for their maturity, common sense and dedication to their community, we would have laughed out loud. After all, the reputation of some of the fraternities - and by association the entire Greek system - has been marred by everything from loud parties to alcohol-related deaths. For a while there it seemed like the fraternity houses on the Hill had been replaced by Al Qaida training camps.

Times have changed. And the most impressive part of the whole transformation of CU's fraternities from soccer hooligans to respectable young men is they did it on their own, without the help or persuasion of the CU administration. Good for the fraternities, we say, for recognizing their own shortcomings and addressing them before it was too late.

Then, to top it all off, the CU Interfraternity Council's (IFC) executive board announced last month plans for a “Social Moratorium,” a two-week hiatus in partying to aid Boulder's 15 fraternity chapters in an ongoing assessment of their risk management policies.

During the moratorium, which ends today, chapters were prohibited from holding any social events in their houses that involve the use of alcohol, giving them an opportunity to improve their safety and risk management procedures with a particular emphasis on holding safe, controlled social events.

Typically, a university or national fraternity imposes such restrictions on partying only after something terrible happens. But reactionary tactics yield almost no benefits for fraternities or the public. What they do create is more hostility between the university and the frats who have grown tired of being blamed for every little thing that happens to drunken partiers in Boulder.

That attitude reached a fever pitch after CU freshman pledge Lynn “Gordie” Bailey was found dead in the Chi Psi fraternity house on the Hill in September 2004 after a night of initiation that included the consumption of mass quantities of alcohol.

Shortly thereafter, the University demanded that CU fraternities and sororities abandon fall rush. The sororities bowed to the university, but the fraternities refused. In retaliation, the university dissociated itself from all fraternities.

The move to stand up to the university was a smart one. No one, save the family, mourned the death of Bailey more than his fraternity brothers. Punishing the fraternity involved and its members was appropriate, but meddling in the affairs of other fraternities was not.

The unfounded bias against fraternities became even more evident a few months after Bailey's death when another student, 21-year-old Bryan Merritt, was found dead in his dorm room. Even before the facts of the case were clear, fingers were pointed at a fraternity that hosted a party the night before Merritt was found. He had attended the party, but by all accounts was not drunk. Despite the efforts of the fraternity - which checked IDs and had police on hand to administer breathalyzer tests - they were blamed for the death. They were later cleared of any wrongdoing.

The moratorium enacted in February represents a new approach for the Greek community. CU Greek Advocated Marc Stine said, since October, the IFC noticed a trend towards noisier parties. Fraternity-police liaisons, he said, expressed concern about the problem, and the IFC took action. They held a risk management meeting which included fraternity presidents, social chairs, house managers, risk managers, and new member education chairs, who heard presentations from the Boulder Police and Fire Departments, national fraternity legal counsel, specialists in fraternity operations, and IFC officers.

This proactive approach to problem-solving received praise from some university officials as well as police and fire representatives. Boulder's Fire Safety Educator Sherry Kenyon went so far as to call the decision “mature.”Again, not a word we thought we'd ever be using to describe a Boulder fraternity.

The efforts of the IFC to control fraternities and to take the safety and reputation of its members into its own hands has been nothing short of astonishing. It's the kind of thing that used to be expected of Greek organizations.

We think the university should take its lumps, admit the fraternities have done a great job of self-policing, and allow them back on campus.

After all, Boulder fraternities are acting more and more like adults these days. It's time the CU administration did the same.
