Campus Safari #9- Fraternity Brothers



I have always wanted to learn more about greek life and whats its all about.  Me and my boy was thinking of joining a fraternity later on in college.    The first club /organziation fair that i been to this year at Southern was the Greek fair this week.  This was my first time experiencing the greek life and all the buzz and excitement that i've been hearing about greek life from my peers.  I was able to see all the differenet fraternity and sororities on campus. 
TKE was my first fraternity that i saw.  It stands for Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity.  I was amaze at them, just seeing the brotherhood and bound that they have, they are a true family.  They were found on January 10, 1899 at Illinois Wesleyan University in Bloomington, Illinois.  I was invited to attend some of their sponsor events this week like, the football game this sunday to kickoff NFL season.                    
BMS stand for Beta Mu Sigma.  It was found in 1959 at Southern Connecticut State University.  I was approach by one of the BMS leaders.  He gave me a lot of information about the organziation and what they do.  I can see the passion that they have for the orgaziation and what they believe in.  To join these organziation you have to go to rush weekend.  Rush weekend is new member recruitement opportunity.  They will go through all the process on how to pledge for this fraternity.

Greek fair was so much fun for me because i was able to find out more information about each fraternity out there and see the brotherhood of it.  It was a great experience to attend the fair.  I kind of got a new perspective of greek life and what it truely means.  Its not just partying 24/7 that they do.  They do more then that like help out their community, and have social events around campus.  They impact the community in a great way and your able to experience new kind of opportunity just by joing a fraternity.  For them its all about brotherhood.
