greek life

by: High Hopes

Year before last was really the end of Greek Life as it has always been at Lehigh.

Last year, you couldn't go to a party without wondering whether the cops would show up at any second.

Any chance we can still go back to the old days of being left alone to do what we want?

Old times there are not forgotten.

Only way to get back there is to retool.

Go secret society or underground. Have smaller events, further off campus, guests stay until morning, and no social media output.

Must go to the roots of original Greek life to get back to freedom.

Right now Greek life is a way for the admin to house students and to outsource social activities so the admin does not have to pay and program. The admin has this free greek resource and treats it poorly. Frankly members in houses should actively plan this fall for how they will exist as new organizations post recognition. It will come quickly - plan now. Start reigning in your open party format and ban social media coverage of parties.

This issue with this is that you lose all protection from the school and cops. Yeah the cops have rapidly been getting worse but they still allow tons of underage drinking and parties to go on. It's not like they bust every single party or cite every kid walking on east fifth. They only really ever get involved if you're too loud or egregiously drunk. If all of Greek life disaffiliated, the school would tell the cops to shut everything down. It seems bad now but it could be way worse.
