Pros of Greek Life

According to a variety of sources, I have found the pros of "going Greek." All of the sources agreed that Greek Life is a great opportunity to meet new people and broaden your social circle. They also agreed that Greek Life does some great things in raising money and creating awareness for different philanthropic events. Dr. Alan Reifman, a professor of human development and family studies at Texas Tech University said," Greek Life might instill a sense of importance to community service, which lasts a lifetime." For those in Greek Life, the "sisterhood" and "brotherhood" were aspects that made Greek Life so special and unique. Frank Parzynski, a Michigan State University and Greek Life Alumnus, and Geoffrey Sabourin, a senior at MSU, Greek Life member, and Interfraternity Council President, both saw Greek Life as a positive on their resumes. They said that being affiliated with Greek Life could help them stand out to employers and possibly advance them in their careers.
