We would just like to express our view, and hopefully enlighten those who are blinded by the negative stereotypes of fraternities and sororities. Often in the midst of temporary controversy, all the good things about Greek life are forgotten. The NU News, despite current events, previously ran an article about Theta Delta Chi members who helped their neighbors by shoveling snow during last winter s blizzard. Being in a fraternity or a sorority is not just about drinking and partying.
College drinking is a big problem for all students in general.
Scholarship is a large part of the sorority ideal. We recognize that without Northeastern, we wouldn t have our sororities. Therefore, schoolwork comes first. Each sorority has GPA requirements, so members may strive to keep their grades up. Some sororities hold study hours, where members can get together to work and study.
