College Fraternities and Sororities - The High Cost of Social Acceptanc

College Fraternities and Sororities - The blue Cost of friendly Acceptance College students who choose to articulation fraternities or sororities do so because of their need for social betrothal. I am person completelyy against fraternities and sororities. I feel that it is money spent for the purpose of buying friends. There ar numerous ways to meet interesting people other than devoting all of your time and money to a niner in order to do so. Perhaps the people who join these conclaves have low self-esteem, social anxiety, or feel that the best way to make friends in college is to pay for them. I find this issue to be interesting because there are many Greek organizations on campus that are constantly advertising and promoting themselves. Non-members have a tendency to either be annoyed or amused with this behavior. To concentrate my thesis I have conducted surveys, interviews and experiments. Because Greek clubs are all over campus, I knew that my surveys and interviews would receive honest responses as to why people join or dont join. I asked more in judgment questions, such as the persons opinion about the issue. I was pleased with my responses. I conducted an experiment in my apartment as the deuce-ace step in my research. I threw a party and passed out Mardi Gras bead to most of the people who attended. I was non partial to any gender. twain men and women received beads. My plan was to observe how much social acceptance affects the way people interact with one another. If my hypothesis were correct, people who did not wear beads would either feel left out and group together, or attempt to mingle with the bead wearers and get rejected. But first, the surveys I conducted were regarding why men and women in coll... ...t your community through fund-raisers all intelligent like good reasons to join. But buying your way into a club is not going to teach you important skills that you will need to spang later s chooling. Your brothers or sisters are not going to be with you after graduation, so again you will need to start over in making new friends. And after college there is a very special amount of organizations where this brotherhood or sisterhood can be found. Social acceptance is wanted everywhere. No one wants to be left unrewarded and unwanted. Although people go about getting this acceptance in disparate ways, people who choose to join a fraternity or sorority are lacking something in their life, whether it is self-esteem or genuine friendships. They have a need to be a part of a group, even if they may need to change their ways and conform to the organizations demands.
