Fraternity and sorority membership is honestly a lifetime commitment, but for most of us it began in college. This book brings back loads of memories of all that is good about these organizations. The stories included in "Inspiration for Greeks" are a reminder as to why our organizations exists.

It is important that the current members and leaders of these organizations spend time addressing the challenges that are faced by fraternities and sororities. This book goes back to the basics and addresses the reasons why most of us joined. Leadership, scholarship, fellowship -- opportunities for inspiration throughout our years as undergraduates...continuing for a lifetime of membership.

This paperback is a collection of inspiring and insightful stories. Those actively involved in fraternities and sororities will recognize the names on the cover as well as the names associated with many of the stories. The stories are encouraging, motivational, humorous, touching and even serious.

This book should be on the shelf of every member of the fraternity and sorority community, young and old alike.

We often hear only the negative aspects of Greek Life and how awful an experience it can be, especially if you're gay, lesbian or bisexual. While there is still much homophobia in the college Greek system, I was glad to read the positive perspective expressed by a gay man who came out to his brothers.... indeed, the world, Greek Life is changing for the better and this book sheds light on stories that will continue to inspire and change the future...

Every year, thousands of parents send their children off to college. Some near, some far... but most out of reach when it comes to the decisions they may make once on campus. One of the choices they will make is whether or not to join a fraternity or sorority. This book provides great insight to the kinds of experiences a son or daughter could have as a Greek. In an era where the negative press outweighs the positive, it is refreshing that some good stories go to print. Inspiration for Greeks has the potential to ease the fears of parents who may know little to nothing about the college experience. If you're a parent, read it for yourself and send it with them when they go. They'll thank you for it!
