Greek Life: More than Just beer and togas

Claim: Sororities and fraternities do more than just party and wear togas.

Data: sororities and fraternities Teaches time management, gives back to the community, and can help with GPA’s.

Warrant: Chris Bullins, director of the office of sorority and fraternity affairs at the University of Florida. Chip Marrarra, assistant dean of students and director of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs at Bucknell University in Pennsylvania.

Grounds and backing: “Bucknell donates an average of 22,000 hours of service a year, in addition to over $100,000.” This proves that sororities and fraternities do community service and give back with there philanthropies. “It is for this reason that schools like Bucknell require rushees to be sophomores before they can join, and even a minimum GPA (Bucknell requires a 2.25).”

Qualifiers: if you join a sorority or fraternity you probably will not always drink beer or wear togas.

Rebutal: unless you join the few sororities or fraternities that do decide to party more than educate themselves at their university.
