The Pros and Cons of Greek Life
Greek life can have its perks, but it can also have its cons. Greek life presents students with a way to become more involved with the social atmosphere on campus. It also presents students with a way to be able to give back to the community. Hazing however is a big issue. Many freshman enter into the Greek life unaware of hazing. Many kids become hazed otherwise known as a lack of transparency. During the typical hell week of Greek life students may find themselves being asked to do things such as drinking, that they may not particularly want to participate in. They are then stuck between a rock and a hard place, because if they choose to walk away from the Greek life they've just lost a lot of money, and if they choose to stay they risk participating in activities that they truly don't want to do. Greek life has it's benefits when the core of the group is based around good and sound ethics. When Greek life's core is centered around partying and hazing, it becomes scary and surreal for many students.
