So, it is a doubled-edged sword. But, I honestly think that Graduate brothers more about the business of the fraternity. Click to expand BlackPrince It's Showtime!!! This is simply my "opinion" on the outside looking in. I have been around a certain fraternity for the longest since I was like 7 or so , and I must say the grad members appear to be moreso about the business of the organization, and the undergrads seem to be about lilttle to nothing. Partying is nice, but my take is what about the community.

I have gotten them from a host of chapters. These are a few examples out of many. There are differences in Grad-made brothers and undergrad-made brothers. I stll get those calls. BandFan said:. Louis making no boyz evil snicker and try to function at work for 9 hours.
But I see what saying Doc. Its not a way of Grads wanting to be "Accepted", but its the point of not wanting to feel "Rejected" for not going undergrad. In another time and place I could have been I pray for all young men trying to see the Sigma light in the Texas area. That is all.

I don't think there is a difference in those sorors who pledge undergrad vs. Yeah, you have those few who think they are better because they did it while in college.
