Values
I don’t want to be the guy preaching values and not following them but here is what I’ve noticed about values on my campus…. its the best bullshit recruitment tool out there. Yes I can say I am values congruent because I am not running around getting drunk before or during events held on campus. I’m not pretending to be fratastic holding a bud in my pictures slapping some...

But anyway, Zach is a cool kid with hos head on right…. he honestly wants to hang out with...

Uknighted
So tonight ended a semester long journey of becoming a brother of Sigma Nu. I am now brother 298. Nothing could make me happier than going through initiation with my brothers that I works so hard with to get to this point. So all I can really say is… HAIL HAIL SIGMA NU!!!!!!!!!!

True Brotherhood
One of my very good friend, Ben, just lost his father. Ben is a Pledge and soon to be initiate of Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity. I wrote on Ben’s Facebook Wall to give my condolences and he sent me a Text message back saying how good of a Friend I really am. This got me to thinking. How good of a friend am I and how does Greek life improve your friendship qualities. This is a kid that I would...

READY, SET, RUSH!!!!
So many people view Greek Life as a huge competition between orgs. Who can get the most people? But Greek Life is not about this at all. It’s about helping people find their home, Every Org is not for every person, not everyone could fit in with Sigma Nu. We have a Fraternity on campus, Arm of Honor, that most people believe no one would want to be in with them. I have friends that fit in...
Berthau
SOOOOOO it’s official, I got my Big, the BEST freaking Big ever. JOSH NIX…… Like I said before there is no need to repeat how awesome he really is but I know he’s proud of what I’ve done and what I plan on doing for the Fraternity. I’m All In… and now I’m MORE READY THAN EVER. So shout out to my Family Line Berthau: MEvans, Imran, Shawn, Joe and of...
It was the Best of Time, It was the Worst of...
This semester for me has been full of ups and downs, but one thing I can count on is my Greek Family being there for me, that is everyone in and out of the Fraternity. Michael Maksymowski has been a Huge help in finding my home and making sure I fit in with my Greek Family,Jamie Linn has shown me that there are good people left in the world, Leonie has made my Greek Life Unique and Mel has made me...
Beta Psi (Til I Die)
I know, I know, I know, I’ve posted at least two other things about my Candidate class, but once again I have to tell you how much I actually LOVE them. Your candidate class is the strongest Greek Life bond you can make, usually stronger than your Big/Little bond. These are the people you enter your Fraternity with, They are your FIRST experience in Greek and you are theirs. It’s the...
Damn Proud
I have a Good Friend Named Adam, he is a member of Delta Sigma Phi, a fraternity I thought about rushing before I joined Sigma Nu. Adam has a saying that I feel needs to be said, not only because of the meaning but because he actually means it. Adam always says, “Damn Proud”. Now to those that either don’t know what that means or just don’t understand us Greeks (LOL)...

Big questions
So talking to my friend Adam, we discussed why he would b a great addition, he asked me, how can one individual influence a group of men to better themselves?
My reply, It can be done as easily as a group of individuals influencing a single person it really on takes one to change many sir, but you would be a great addition to an already great team.
I’m not recruitment chair…yet and...
Homecoming
So this Weekend was Homecoming, in the 3 years at a Big university, I’ve only been to 2 homecoming games and I’ve only been to 2 games and this was my first Homecoming Tailgate. But what better way to have a first tailgate than to do it with my brothers. So I’m taking this time to post some over my pictures…. oh and BTW we won

Library Hours (UGH)
So as a pledge of Sigma Nu, we are supposed to maintain our grades to be able to be a Sigma Nu. So we do Library Hours. Most people would think studying in the library would be the worst thing ever but it’s really not, we have groups that go into the library to “study” together. Do I get stuff done, sometimes. Do I have a great time, YES!! It helps that Brooke is there all the...
Well Supported
So I know this is a Blog about my Greek life and how it’s going but I feel the need to talk about some of the greatest people ever specifically after yesterday. So for those who do not know which is probably most of you that read my blog, my candidate class is doing a bottle drive to fund raise for our class. I felt like this was a great idea and volunteered to be the spokesperson for our...
Big wishes
So as the my enterance to Sigma Nu starts, there is one thing that still needs to be put in place, My actual Big brother. So our candidate marshall, an awesome guy and former employee Josh Richardson, gets to find the pefect person to make our enterance to Greek Life special. When asked to put down 3 people I did, but truly my first pick is my only wish. Josh Nix of course, I mean if you read the...
My Candidate Brothers
The Best part of being a Candidate is getting to know your Candidate brother. Hanging out with them and creating that bond that you can only get in your candidate process. So here is a list of my Bros and how I feel about them… REALLY
Derrick- He was my friends way before this whole thing but we really weren’t as close as we are now. I mean we still act the same towards each other,...
The New ΣN Sweet Heart
It takes a Special type of Person to Be Sweet hearted, and Brooke Nemchak is that girl. I mean if it is SIGMA NU she is there, she looks out of all the candidates and all the actives. We had an event with the New Members of Alpha Xi Delta and she had to stay way from us so we wouldn’t spend all of our time with her. She is FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!! Period. And I am So Proud to call her my...
What does Greek Life mean to you?
A few days ago I asked What does Greek Life Mean to You? What am I going to to with the answers? I’m not yet sure but it will be something BIG so for right now here’s what my Friends had to say about it….
Demarcus Evans…To me Greek Life is the result of what happens when groups of people who share similar ideas while keeping their own individuality come together to push...
Big-Little, Little-Big
So everyone in Greek Life knows what a Big and Little is but for those that do not know, especially the ones that are thinking about joining Greek Life, a Big is a Big Brother/Sister to a new member and a Little is a Little Brother/Sister. You can only have Two Bigs, but you only NEED one, for Fraternities, you NEED a Big Brother, for Sororities, a Big Sister. You can have as many Littles as you...
Bid Day Decisions
See I don’t know how you guys do it at your schools, probably the same way we do it here but here’s my Bid story…
Last year if I was going to join a Fraternity it would be without a doubt, Delta Sigma Phi. I hung out with them, I played basketball with them, I served them coffee and was rude to them, just as I am with all of my friends of course, and Michael Maksymowski was the...
For starters...
First, since I know he’s going to see this, Michael Maksymowski, yes I stole your back ground that was graciously given to us by Tumblr. Much love to you good sir. Now let me Introduce myself. My name is Jason Bernard Crawford. Born in Washington DC, August 18th 1988. I am a singer / Songwriter / Basketball Coach / Batista / Student at Eastern Michigan University. For my first year at EMU,...
