To put this simply...Planning on doing big things this spring. I've been geeked to do this since I was in the 8th grade. So seeing as I've been preparing since 8th grade...no...seriously...I have a vast amount of information on a certain sorority burned into my memory. And I don't plan on stopping with the reading and researching. BUT a freind of mines told me once told me that greeks were less likely to accept someone into their flanks when there is nothing to teach , because learning is a big part of the process. Now, I can't help that I have this information in my head...my question is. If this is true, do I downplay the knowledge and keep my mouth shut <~ :evil: or do what I do?
OHH I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION!! Do greeks so mercy and compassion... My G.P.A. might not be what it should be this spring because ...well some very very sad series of events for my family. Does it matter that I've lost members of my family recently or do I just have to have the G.P.A. no matter what the circumstances?
Okay...I'm thru...

Research is a good thing.
As far as GPA requirements that's something that we can't answer because chapters handle things differently.

Question for you. If you know that scholarship is important, why aren't you trying to spend your valuable time getting your grades up, instead of worrying about pledging? It seems like you have your priorities a little out of order.
****DISCLAIMER....I'm Non-Greek, but I have been thru some similar processes****
Usually no matter how tight you are with the folks in the chapter and how much info you know and how many letters of reccommendation you have...if your GPA is NOT the minimum which is usually somewhere betwen 2.5 and 3.5. YOU ARE INELIGILBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN INTAKE.
Secondly, no matter how much info you PERSONALLY know...it won't matter during your "process" because every member of the "line" has to be equally knowledgeable. So you may know something but if everyone doesn't know it then you know NOTHING. So it's best to keep your mouth shut and only let folks know a lil bit of what you have sitting up there. :wink:
