Personally, I think a bond such as this would be an excellent idea. Drexel
University's Zeta Theta chapter is all-male and there is a GSS chapter
there as well. IMHO, I don't think there's enough activity between the two
organizations at Drexel. Sure, they are the big sisters for our pledges on
the majority and we are the big brothers a lot of the time, but as for
cooperation on Service, I think that leaves a lot to be desired. I don't
know if this is the case with other schools, but this is the sad truth
about Drexel. So, I believe that a bond such as this would really be a
good thing for both organizations. Of course, this is only my opinion.
People can disagree with it as they wish.
In Leadership, Friendship, and Service,
