I'm still working on researching my geneology...I already know I have ancestral ties to areas around Greece...I don't know yet if I have any ancestors directly from Greece though.

But in any sense, I was referring to "Greek" as in being a member of a Greek-letter organization.

Why bother? You can live a life just like in Animal House without ever having to go through the motions of being in a fraternity - you know, raising money for charitable causes, getting together with other fraternities and sororities to better the community around you...holding yourself to a higher standard in academics and your personal life.

Be like just about every other unaffiliated college student, and get just as drunk without having to worry about things like contributions to society.

Well it is a tight group that is free for anyone of any age of any education level of any religion of any race of any culture to join.... so no... No Uni Requirements.... although we do have a STRICT "No Popped Coller Policy"

Oh, pinion...the local chapter of my fraternity volunteers every week at the First Baptist Church soup kitchen in downtown Vancouver. If you'd like to join them, they're usually there on Tuesday nights.

Well Jake, you're in the Fraternal order of T-Punk...and dontcha know that EVERY frat boy is TOTALLY alike? There's nothing different about us. We all drive cars bought with daddy's money, get totally trashed from the keg, wear our collars popped, and date rape hot girls. Welcome to the club!
