I am venturing down the path of "Greekdom" with my college son. I have a few questions for you:
1) How much influence did either of your parents have on your decision once you were clearly approached?
2) Did you share everything with your parents?
3) If your dad was in one frat and your stepdad was in a different frat what would you do? Son is tight with both dads. (Girls...what if your mom/stepmom were in different sororities?)
I am honored to be close with my son but come fall '05 when he starts his sophomore year and at his school he can do this. Some frats have already approached him. I though you had to be a Junior at least huh?
I want to define my role a little bit better. Know my bounds and be correct on my info. (I have many friends in every frat/soro)
I am supportive of him becoming a member of a black fraternity. He is leaning on me for loads of advice because he does not want to offend or mislead either dad...he's cool like that.
Thanks for your thoughts!
Lol I had been thinking that "she" was fake but I didn't say anything because I don't post much. It just seem like someone trying to get direction because basically "she" said to much
Well out of the 3 HBCUs here in MD, 1) there are no Ques on the yard (Coppin) and they havent crossed a line of Kappas in awhile...scratch Coppin. 2) the Ques just crossed 1 dude at Bowie and a line of 3 (i believe) Kappas at Bowie....a possibility 3) We didnt cross a line this past semester however the Kappas...hmmm
What about Eastern Shore? :grin:
Anyway what does it matter? Let the mom tell it and all the fraternities on her son's yard are jockin him so...

I know right. I was like, what about eastern shore too.
First: Happy Memorial Day Weekend to all of you!
Boy this thread is twistin and a turnin...anyway, for those of you who thought I was asking you how to parent I implore you to re-read my original query on this thread.
I asked YOU if YOU asked YOUR parents advice about SPECIFIC areas of BGLO.
Also, how anyone could think I am "blowin" my son up as one who is jocked by ALL the frats has OBVIOUSLY NOT bothered to read my posts. I have under 40 of them. Simply go to my FIRST post and see if your assertion holds up.
They say that if you want to hide something from some black people to put it in a book. I am beginning to see why that is being said...
Have a fun, blessed and safe holiday weekend! :grin:
