The first Greek organization to assemble was in 1776 at the College of William and Mary. Fraternities were built to provide friendship and recreation. It has been 239 years since the first fraternity was established and now in 2015, there are 123 fraternities and sororities. There are nine million college students involved in Greek organizations (Glass, Nicole). These members are looking to make friends, to build their resumes, to go to social events, or to learn leadership skills. Each member when joining has the incentive to change some aspect of his or her life (Glass, Nicole). If one has the opportunity to join a Greek life organization he or she should for the reasons of giving back to the community, the higher academic standards, the

With this research I plan to go back to the roots of why sororities use Greek language in their discourse community and how it helps them form a sisterhood that is shared only amongst the community. Sororities and fraternities are becoming more prevalent in universities all across the nation. Today, there are over 9 million members of the Greek communities and the number is continuously growing each year (“Greek Life Statistics”). “The terms ‘fraternity’ and ‘sorority’ describe groups of men and women who join together to offer fellowship, academic support, leadership training, participation in campus activities, service to the community and University, and preparation for future careers” (“What is Greek Life?”). People that in are the Greek community all have at least one thing in common. Whether they just want to be apart of a sisterhood/brotherhood or deeper things like they all share a common belief or goal. “Sororities have five basic benefits: sisterhood, scholarship, leadership, philanthropy (charitable causes/community service), and socializing” (“About Sororities”). These benefits are included in the values and beliefs of a sorority as a discourse community. Greeks all speak a “language” that they learn in the process of becoming part of their fraternity/sorority(recruitment process). Agendas, e-mails, and text messages are all forms of a genre. A genre is anything that is written down and shared in the discourse community. Face to face interaction is a way to advertise for events and also another way to advertise for events is through

My name is Jacob Dube and I currently serve as the President of the Florida Chapter of Delta Chi here at the University of Florida. In 1776, you all made a decision that would forever change the course of college history at the College of William and Mary and many other universities nationwide as you created the first American collegiate fraternity. I cannot express my gratitude for you as you all paved the way for the Greek system in a college and university setting. The Greek experience is one of a kind to all of its members, and it has helped produce some of the most successful people in our country. I would like to share to you some great news about today’s Greek systems here at the University of Florida and how you helped shape the success of so many Greek students.

Originally, I had the common misconception that fraternities solely focused on parties, drinking and their social status. As I further researched the founding principles of Alpha Phi Alpha I became aware they collectively prioritize scholarship, fellowship, good character, and the uplifting of humanity. Alpha Phi Alpha is

Members of Omega Sigma, Houston Community College’s chapter of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, hosted their first general meeting of the fall semester on Sept 4 at the West Loop campus.

Pursuing the dream of obtaining membership into the First Intercollegiate Greek Fraternity for African Americans, Alpha Phi Alpha, Inc. is one of very few ultimate goals in my life. An organization that was founded to stimulate the ambitions of its members and prepare them for great usefulness within the community has since become one of the most well respected organizations in America. Over one hundred years later, the pivotal movement in 1906 has spread to over the entire country in different collegiate chapters and cities across America and the impact has been tremendous. Alpha Phi Alpha, Inc. was vaguely introduced to me as a child but it did not take effect until I started school at Southern University and A&M College in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Fraternities, the deep roots of many American universities, have instilled the traditions of brotherhood, loyalty, and respect upon many young men entering college for the first time. Built with power, they intended

The Fraternity does not take cultural insensitivity lightly, and I want to apologize for the misstep taken during the program presented to you by one of the Every Member Education Trainers. The last thing we want to have happen is to have our collegiate members feel upset over any programs presented. This could have opened dialogue about a subject that is relevant to all of us. It is disappointing that this opportunity was missed.

On Wednesday's class there were different students representing clubs and organizations at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. The students who represented FAMU Connections talked how their organization recruit students through song and dance. The Greek student talked about the pros and cons of joining sorority and fraternity. When a person joins a sorority or fraternity he or she expands their social circle. They are also up for different leadership opportunities, a brotherhood/sisterhood, and also networking with older members or younger members. The cons that the members expressed to us was that time management skills was necessary, that you are at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University for school first. And also keeping

A few weeks ago our Reginal Director (Ryan D’Ercole) for Sigma Phi Epsilon visited our chapter and held different topics based on differing viewpoints of fraternity life. He showed us videos of people talking about different opinions based around hazing and then another one based around substance free housing.

Visitors, Aspirants, inquirers and candidates are encouraged to attend; this is a wonderful experience to see the inner workings of the structure of the fraternity. Several of our candidates have volunteered to help with our upcoming elections.

I have selected my interviewees based on their affiliation with Greek Life and their availability to be interviewed. I will be talking to two fraternity men, two sorority women, and two people that aren’t associated with Greek Life in order to gather a variety of information. I chose to interview two of each type of person so that I would be able to get more than one type of perspective for each group. Of the two fraternity members I interviewed, one was a full brother in one of the active chapters on my campus. The other was one of my own brothers and since we are in a colony, we aren’t brothers but we also aren’t pledges, which gives us a unique outlook on Greek Life. The two sorority members that I interviewed were also very different. The first woman I interviewed is a sister in one of the active chapters on campus. The other had just recently dropped her letters due to time
