It's A Greek Life

My brother was in a fraternity. I preferred the dorm girls, was not a rules-follower, and preferred to choose my own friends. I was more geek than Greek.

My niece was in a sorority. Today, her daughter became a sorority pledge. They invited me to tag along in all the excitement this week. It was an amazing, all-consuming, feet-blistering, nerve-racking but exciting and fun week. Exams should be a breeze after this week!

My great-niece was so analytical about her choice of sororities that I was beginning to think she was too mature for college. The best part of Bid Day today - the beautiful smile on her face! Her happiness was contagious.
