Post Letter: Greek members are more than 'bro' stereotype

In a recent Post column, “The secret life of the American college bro,” the author presented a rather stereotypical view of fraternity brothers, and as a brother myself I found the article to be rather offensive and small-minded. The article painted all fraternity members as rude, aggressive, abrasive and consumed with the sole objective of being as drunk and rowdy as possible. As an objective newspaper, I feel it is only right to present both sides of the story, and there were several things your author failed to include. I am a fraternity brother with a high GPA who regularly contributes to the campus and community service, and I’m not the only one: Greek members represent the largest collective community service network in America, contributing more than 10 million hours of service a year. A recent study from the University of Missouri found that Greek members across the country are more involved on their campus and rate their overall college experience higher; that same study found that Greek members contribute more to their community and alma mater than their peers as well.
