Rush Week Essay

During the interview, I focused on questions to pertained to what the fraternity has done for them. An impactful quote I got during the interview that described what the fraternity has done for one of my brothers was, “Guys that normally wouldn’t be together, coming together and actually doing fun stuff. The fraternity has made me really jump out of my comfort zone and become a different person than I was before” (Anonymous).

Later, we discussed what he does individually to uphold the founding principles of the fraternity, he stated “I participate in community service often, focus on scholarship and maintaining my academics; because my ultimate goal is to graduate.” I respected him so much and knew that his brothers also shared the same mindset.

1. What are the current challenges facing United Way? What are key issues in the general and non-profit charitable giving industry environments that affect United Way’s operations?

I began the rush process near the tail end of my senior year and continued through the summer. I went to many different fraternities and had a phenomenal time meeting lots of cool people, but I noticed a consistent theme that troubled me. Almost everywhere I went, it seemed like a lot of the guys were very similar to one another. Whether it be personality, geographical background, or even trivial qualities such as the kind of cars they drove or how much money their parents made, a majority of the members of these fraternities seemed to fit a certain mold unique to their chapter. Growing up in a community that one could describe as a social Hunger Games, I had to shape and mold myself into a person that I wasn’t just to survive junior high and high school. After many years of acting like someone I wasn’t, I did not want to spend the most important four years of my life at a place where I wouldn’t be able to be the person I truly am. I began to think that fraternity life might not be for me, but that changed when I met the brothers at Pi Kappa Phi. When I visited Pi Kapp for the first time, I didn’t know anyone in the chapter or anything about the fraternity. While this did initially make me nervous, I soon noticed something that would calm my nerves. Unlike the other places I visited, the men represented all sorts of different personalities, geographical backgrounds, and ethnicities. But despite all their differences, I’ve never seen a closer group of people. I met guys from eight different states in one weekend, which is more states than most fraternities can say their brothers represent. But the thing that I appreciated the most about the brothers is that for the first time all summer, I felt truly and genuinely accepted. Not because of where I grew up or other things I can’t control, but because of who I truly am. I knew I had found the place I was meant to be. That

The arguments I choose to assess for truth and validity will be three statements taken from the Application's list 12.2 (a -y) at the end of Ch. 12, “The Art of Thinking” publication. I will start with the statement (j) the premise that "power must be evil because it can corrupt people." Checking the argument for any hidden premises and ensuring it is stated fully and in a clear concise way is the first step. This argument seems to pass the first hurdle, however after checking for errors affecting truth, the argument has flaws. Beginning with, the part of the argument that says power corrupts people is not true

My community has been a huge part of life growing up. They have been there to help me grow and continue to grow while achieve the goals i have always wanted for myself. It is not all about me.

A few weeks ago our Reginal Director (Ryan D’Ercole) for Sigma Phi Epsilon visited our chapter and held different topics based on differing viewpoints of fraternity life. He showed us videos of people talking about different opinions based around hazing and then another one based around substance free housing.

“Attention, soldiers of the Continental army, the patriots of our colonies!” George Washington shouted, drawing attention to himself as he stood. The whispers along with mumbles stopped, every person bringing their attention to the general as he stood from top to bottom as well as proud. “I will explain quickly what the plan of action is before I separate you. One through five-thousand, you will be going with Lafayette, blocking their escape from Yorktown, waiting in the Chesapeake Bay! Alexander, I believe you had something to say to our people of the colonies?”

During my first semester of college, I was appointed a leadership position within Zeta Beta Tau (ZBT) fraternity. Like some of my new brothers, I was wary of Greek life upon entering college, but my mindset changed after meeting the brothers of ZBT and realizing that they broke every negative fraternity-related stereotype possible. As one of the youngest fraternities on campus, there was an array of leadership opportunities available for new members as well as the ability to help shape the culture of the fraternity. Since ZBT removed their pledge process in 1989, I was initiated as a brother in September following the rush week.
