Comment:  Phi Gamma Delta (FIJI) is a GREAT fraternity. I've seen the chapter at its best, and I've seen the chapter briefly during a time when morale was low, and FIJI was facing what seemed like an unsurmountable obstacle. The men of this chapter would simply not give up, and I'm personally glad they didn't. As many may know on Hanover's campus FIJI is just fresh off social probation. In January 2017, The administration, without warning, restricted FIJI from holding their 2017 Run Night with the other fraternal organizations and delayed their bid delivery process based off a rush video deemed inappropriate by the school. When FIJI, the greatest fraternity on Hanover's campus was down, out of jealously for FIJI's fun parties, great events, and incredible on-campus athletic involvement, the lower tier fraternities Phi Delta Theta & Lambda Chi Alpha cheered and prayed on Phi Gamma Delta's downfall. However, FIJI Chapter leadership steered the ship and steadily improved the relationship with the school's administration, regained trust, and eventually in late fall 2017, FIJI was free. From an unaffiliated student at Hanover's prospective, the future of Phi Gamma Delta is bright. When considering where to rush this year, I would recommend asking yourself the question "Why do I hear so much anti-FIJI hatred on campus?" Is it because the FIJI's are bad guys? No. Is it because they aren't involved on campus? Absolutely not, they have the most community service hours on campus & are involved and engaged in countless student leadership positions. Such as RA's, PA's, and many other student organizations. Is it because they disrespect women? No, the FIJI's stand up for Hanover women and swiftly deal with male students who disrespect women around campus and during parties. People hate on FIJI because they are the BEST. You can be a part of the best. You can too become a member of Phi Gamma Delta, you can pledge to uphold their values of Friendship, Service, Knowledge, Excellence, and Morality. I would strongly recommend freshman men make the right choice and rush FIJI in 2018.
