6/29/2009 5:03:37 PM

that's not cool dude.

^or do we???

6/29/2009 5:04:46 PM

UVA has 4 societies that I know of. The Sevens are known for their monetary charity to other groups on campus.

I was a mechanical engineer, and we had a number of other engineers.

joining a fraternity actually helped curtail my alcohol intake, too, just because there was always something to do--I actually largely stopped drinking after I joined a fraternity (although I still partied my face off). In the dorms, I had a case of idle hands popping tops.

I'm fairly sure James Goodnight was a TKE.

I think most people would consider him successful.

6/30/2009 8:40:01 AM

so was Jim Graham...

and he was only the Commissioner of Agriculture for 487 years...


not saying that's on caliber with SAS, but still...

maybe only TKEs named Jim/James are successful

6/30/2009 8:44:40 AM

Goodnight was successful because he was Goodnight, not because he was a TKE. Think big picture, the majority.

6/30/2009 8:45:31 AM

but how many TKEs may end up successful because Goodnight was a TKE...

think big picture here

6/30/2009 8:47:11 AM

Less than 1%

6/30/2009 8:47:37 AM

Jim Goodnight probably isn't the best example in helping individual Tekes achieve success. He's such a prominant figure that he's too busy to speak with johnny sophmore about a summer internship.


But there have been countless others, on smaller scales of success, that have lended hands to individual chapter members in order to find internships, interviews, connections, careers pre graduation and post graduation.


Digressing back to Goodnight, he may not help each member on an individual basis but he's given more back to the chapter as a whole than you can imagine. Our move off campus at the turn of the decade along with the brand new house was almost all completely accomplished because of his generosity.





and that goes for all fraternity and sorority organizations. johnny sophmore from Will Ferrel's Delta Tau Delta chapter at USC can't expect an automatic letter of recommendation to join the Groundlings. But Joe class of 2000 may be able to help him get a summer internship at a production company or something similar.

Goodnight has given more to NCSU via SAS than he has TKE, I'm willing to bet.

I'm just saying, you are really reaching with this Goodnight/TKE thing. The majority of the members have not seen success simply because of him. That's kinda absurb if you think about it. Still, you can always say that he was a TKE. However, TKE had nothing to do with his later success, it was alllll goodnight.

6/30/2009 9:16:46 AM

^I don't think that's even an arguement...and why would it be?



of course he has, 10 fold. that was a pretty useless statement.

so you're saying there's a chance

6/30/2009 9:19:41 AM

only if you start going by James instead of one of your other 43 names...

or the name that isn't even yours but you choose to use anyway

I was actually agreeing with you on this point.

6/30/2009 9:29:40 AM

^you have to remember this is the wolf web. no one actually reads the responses of others. they merely look for bits and pieces to argue about so they can continue to prove they're right.

6/30/2009 9:32:59 AM

^

I didn't read what he said, but I agree.

6/30/2009 9:34:51 AM

yeah...and i never said Goodnight hires every TKE and makes him a bazillionaire....

i was pretty much trying to make the same argument that Jesse did....


Goodnight used his success to help the fraternity and it's members, which, in turn, has probably helped quite a few become more successful than they would have....

as well as the Will Ferrell analogy

The whole post was in response to the guy who said he never heard of anyone in a frat being successful.

I thought someone claimed that they never knew anyone that was in a frat that was successful and majored in Math or Physics?

6/30/2009 9:41:06 AM

What were goodnight's degrees in?

I'm fairly sure his undergrad was in math from what i've read in the past, but the only thing i can find is that his doctorate is in statistics.

either way it's splitting cunt hairs.

I imagine in general the percentage of greeks and non-greek college grads who are, in general, successful are probably about the same.

Ultimately, all of these arguments blindly hating on greeks are based on latent social issues.

6/30/2009 9:47:26 AM

I was just trying to bring some realism to the greek fantasy, not really hating on them. It's hard to really hate on people like that, more of a sense of pity if anything. I'm sure most TKE's are cool people.

6/30/2009 10:05:39 AM

I'm not convinced...

6/30/2009 10:59:38 AM

hahaha, frats are gay

6/30/2009 11:36:00 AM

Whatever happened to the guy that pissed all those sorority girls off and they had that rally against him?

Hahahah. That was pretty awesome, I don't care who you are.

RALEIGH, N.C. -We've all seen them. They walk with their noses turned toward the sky. They carry gigantic Vera Bradley purses. Huge circular ornaments - I've been told they're sunglasses - hang from their faces.

If you're lucky, you might just hear their Sperry Topsiders flapping against the ground, warning you that one's right around the corner.

The dreaded "sorostitute."

But we shouldn't really make fun of these bilge-ridden, rancorous old sows; we should feel sorrow for them. They have been used and abused by the allurements of sorority pop-culture.

The image of the modern liberated woman - empowered, sexy, audacious and fun - has in many ways been inverted by sorority pop culture. Like high school (or the world's biggest popularity contest) the less fortunate or less popular kids always wanted to hang-out with the "cool" kids; ride the better cars, go to the better parties, wear the better clothes and just generally be envied. Did these less fortunate kids have some deep inner connection with the inner souls of the more popular kids? Clearly not. They wanted what the "cool" kids had, the superficial aspects, and they would sacrifice everything for a little acceptance.

And that's exactly what we're seeing a lot of today in college. Many girls are attracted to the glitz and glamour of sorority life. They could care less about being enjoined by common interests or nurturing lasting relationships other than those of the "I-slept-with-the-same-guys-you-slept-with" variety.

Take, for example, the exclusive list of clothes retailers and fashion accessories which basically serve as a litmus test for entry into a sorority. Girls bite into that stuff like rabid dogs. Their neurotic conformity to the latest fashion trend shows how many girls forsake their own creativity and their true personality for blind faceless acceptance.

In all actuality, these girls are simply insecure. Without a real sense of self-worth, they try to cheat or sleep their way into cafe society.

Oftentimes, sorostitutes feel validated when they discover that guys like them. But, sadly, most men may entreat them as toys or trophies to be trotted out in front of their friends, but men don't want women who are decorated to death as partners in any type of meaningful relationship. However, it remains possible that these girls realize this and are perfectly happy with cheap, fleeting trysts. If so, I am even more saddened.

Lest there be any confusion - as inevitably there always is - what am I really saying? Is sorority life in any way "bad?" No, rather I think it can be a wonderful thing (though admittedly, I've never tried it). Are all sorority girls "sorostitutes?" Heavens no!

None of my sorority friends are sorostitutes; but there's a lot of them out there who are.

My contention is not with sorority life. I'm worried about the girls who have nose-dived into sorority pop-culture to mask their insecurities. They aren't really interested in relationships. They just want to be loved, for all the wrong reasons.

" I received an e-mail last night from one of my Alumni who is working where this article was written. It is important that girls read and understand what kind of image that they give off from their chapter. Here is a letter from the Chi Omega president of that area in regards to the article. Alumnae Sisters of Chi Omega, Today in the Technician, (the N.C. State Newspaper), a staff writer took up issue with all sorority women on N.C. State's campus. The article, entitled "Sorostitutes are Weak and Wounded,"<http://technicianonline.com/story.php?id=012007> is not only degrading to women in general, but specifically disparaged women in Greek organizations. The article is clearly unfair and untrue. Please keep an eye on the media, as the story is sure to be covered throughout the state. A press conference has been scheduled for Monday, August 29, 2005. As you can imagine, Sorority women, Greek Life, the NCSU Women's Center, and Faculty are outraged. Chi Omega Nationals has been alerted, and the Alpha Kappa women are awaiting their response to the article. We are expecting all NPC organizations to make a formal statement regarding the article, so please do not make personal statements to the media on behalf of Chi Omega. If you know of young women enrolled at NCSU (or other Universities), please reassure them that Sorority women are talented, intelligent, kind-hearted, community-oriented women, *not* "Sorostitutes," as the author of the article claims. http://technicianonline.com/story.php?id=012007 Many thanks, -S K President, Raleigh-area Chi Omega Alumnae Group"

does anyone have a picture of the rally they held?

I'm sure there was an old thread on here a while back. I specifically remember a pic from the rally. Those bitches got trolled hardcore.
