real talk: joining greek life makes you have no life

you get what you put in, which is life! my sorority adviser helped me secure a paid internship in a very competitive field...there are many opportunities that are above and beyond simply social

Sorry that you hold such negative feelings for greek life! I'm in 2 greek orgs and both have opened my eyes to a lot of poorly publicized clubs that I've come to love, gave me healthier friendships than the ones I had before going greek, and sparked a passion for service that I never realized I had (ie. working in shelters, samaritan centers, and holding babies in the NICU). Again, so sorry that going greek didn't work out for you (it's not for everyone and that's perfectly okay), but understand that in any greek organization, you get what you put into it and that a lot of people (like me) do come out better for having been them. Should greek life be the only things you're involved in? Of course not! It is, however, a great starting spot for getting involved on the rest of campus.
