The End of an Era

  • Didn't go to Bama, but we had pledges that complained to the Student Affairs Office that we made them vacuum and dust the Chapter Room (Den) and that we played Mud Football (Smear the Qu__r) Actives vs. Pledges and we had to take some minor grief from the Dean who was Greek himself. Sure we had some guys that took stuff a little too far, but no one ever got hit in the face, forced to drink if they didn't want to, got peed on or anything like that.

    I dished out my share of pushups, made pledges recite the books of the Bible and made them recite the Greek Alphabet while holding a kitchen match, walk through 3 foot doors, and crab walk up stairs. And I received the same treatment from time to time when I was a pledge, but seriously...I always thought it was in good fun. Frankly, I've seen worse during my professional life in how "higher ups" treated new hires.

    Can't tell if serious. If so, here's another rendering.

    I like it a lot.
    Not very serious my friend.

  • Problem with not joining frat is lack of access to social situations where you can hit on sorority girls.

    Most Greek guys are grade a douche bags but putting up with them is worth it at least for a year.

    The Greek stuff is a hold over from when getting as drunk as possible as often as possible was the goal. Be happy to see the whole thing go away. Having one of the best party schools is nothing to be proud of. Good riddance.

    Whaaat??

    Did you even go to college? Getting as drunk as possible as often as possible were some of the best memories of my life. The mornings after on the other hand...

    Having gone through the same, I completely agree. When did you graduate?
