The audience for this image is anyone who is going to college and might be interested in joining Greek Life. The author is someone who is already involved in Greek Life. The purpose is trying to get the word out about joining Greek. About getting students involved.
I am in a sorority, Delta Delta Delta, here at NAU and I absolutely love it. There are so many stereotypes about sororities and fraternities and most of them just are not true. If I went to a different school I might not have gone Greek but here at NAU it is about sisterhood, philanthropy, academics, and social events. What else can you join and instantly you have 80 new friends? We in Tri Delta have to do so many philanthropy hours each semester. This helps us getting out in the community and participating in other events. We also have our national philanthropy which is St. Jude Children Research Hospital which we raise a lot of money for every year. Academics are a big part of sororities. It is mandatory to retain a certain GPA to be a part of Greek Life. This past semester Tri Delta came in third out of eight sororities. Every type of group, Greek or not, has social events. Greek just has formals and date parties and bake days, and intramural sports.
Everyone thinks that all the different sororities and fraternities hate the other ones and we really don’t. We have a healthy competition with others for intramurals and other activities but everyone really does get along.
Yes some people drink and party but everyone does it. Not just Greek people. Lumping everyone together like that is not fair and is automatically judging which is not right.
Going Greek is a positive thing here at NAU and as long as you join for the right reasons than you will benefit greatly from being a part of this. There are a lot of different chapters so there will be a sorority or frat that fits you personally.
