Beneficial, rewarding, brotherhood, GREEK LIFE.  My Greek Life experience at the College of Charleston has changed my life forever. As an out of state student, a close knit relationship was not easy to come by when I first came to the college. I was overwhelmed how the fraternity guys on campus reached out to me during my freshman year. I knew I wanted to be a part of an organization that exudes true brotherhood. After being initiated in fall 2008, the bond that I am currently in welcomed me like a real brother. Road trips, late night studying, socials, and eventually rooming together, I feel as if my support system and love from my fraternity brothers on this campus is unconditional. I couldn’t imagine my college experience being so fulfilling without the Greek Life aspect. Even when I decided to study through the National Student Exchange Program in California for a semester, my fraternity brothers across the country welcomed me also and I knew it was because of the bond that I joined while at the College of Charleston. I thank Greek Life for allowing me to show my true talents, true beliefs, and my true strengths. College would not be the same without GREEKS!
