Get the Arternity mug.An organization designed upon societal and/or religious virtues and designated by greek letters which is intended to provide additional assistance to young college men beyond the curriculum of their respective university, including but not limited to leadership, organizational, rhetorical, political and social skills. Focused on the instillment of manly principles such as maturity, discipline, honor, self restraint, friendship, kindness, labor and selflessness. These are values which the typical university does not attempt to foster and which are sadly lacking in many (but not all) of our generation. Fraternities are like people; there are good ones and bad ones, and each individual is responsible for which one they associate with as they will be rightly judged in kind; however, as with people, it is also highly irresponsible and ignorant to label or judge them wholesale.

Get the Delta Theta Sigma Fraternity mug.From a scientific stand point, the mentality of frat is extraordinarily close to that of a street gang as they both have various symbols and signs that you find engraved into bathroom walls and desks. They believe that strength comes in numbers and the individual is powerless by themselves. If understood by its definition, then a fraternity is a group of individuals who’s self esteem comes only from the amount of friends they can initiate into their frat. There is the social experiment of placing a member of a prestigious fraternity into a setting of those who are not part of the frat lifestyle and after a small amount of time, that individual conforms to the interests and beliefs of that group. Thus the strength of their fraternity is disproved. This is exactly the reason fraternities do not allow those of low income levels to enter their social groups. From an evolutionary stand point, diversity is beneficial in all forms. Thus a fraternity who lacks unconditional acceptance is flawed in its abilities.
the young man joined the fraternity for social acceptance but found unwarrented rivalries and economic discrimination.

Get the fraternity mug.Contrary to the biased views on the Northern Fraternity that the geographically lower Fraternities of America have created, Northern Fraternites are known everywhere for their hospitality, respect towards women, and culture. Northern Fraternities were the first to be founded, and first to quicken the ethical code of our nation. A Northern fraternity man will be the first to display these characteristics. Southern Fraternities may claim to be cultured gentlemen when in reality many of them hold the same ideals embraced by most Southern citizens of the early 1860's, which directly inhibits the diffusion of American culture on many levels. Many are quick to forget that 90% of the clothing styles worn by Southern fraternities were all procreated in the North, and designed for Northern culture and tradition. Any use of derogatory Fraternal slang is the primary way to identify a true fraternity man from the any sub-par organization.
A Northern Fraternity will follow a fraternal code, and express the class that Southern Fraternities claim they have.
