Before coming to college I had many people tell me that I would make my best friends in college. Whenever I told anyone that I was going to Kansas State University in the fall they would rant and rave about how much fun I would have. Everyone I talked to told me it would be fun for many different reasons but the one thing that everyone mentioned was the friendships I would form. I became really excited to get to Manhattan and have a bunch of great friends. I had some really good high school friends
A Dynamic Individual with Vitality and Attitude…these are the characteristics of a true DIVA. I never knew the real meaning of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated until I attended college.

The way they spoke, how they carried themselves, the respect they demanded and the attention they received just by walking into a room

How would college campuses be different if there were no sororities nor fraternities? Throughout their lifespan, the media has constantly been negatively portraying fraternities and sororities, from movies like House Bunny, 22 Jump Street, and Legally Blonde. Greek life has been portrayed to the public audience as a group of misfits. The negative portrayal of Greek life exists also at Mississippi State, often in the form of a clear divide between Greek students and their non-affiliated classmates
Delta Zeta Sorority Life: Good or Bad? “Sisterhood is the essence of all the wisdom of ages, distilled into a single word. You cannot see sisterhood, neither can you hear it nor taste it. But you can feel it a hundred times a day. It is a pat on the back, a smile of encouragement. It’s someone to share with, to celebrate your achievements” – Anonymous (Sorority Quotes). Joining a sorority is a life-changing experience during college. When going to college, there are many clubs and organizations
A Mirage of Benefits from Fraternities and Sororities The first Greek letter organization was founded in 1776 at the College of William and Mary. This organization was a fraternity called Phi Beta Kappa and set forth many of the modern norms and traditions of fraternities and sororities. The traditions include: a secret ritual, a secret handshake, a badge, mottos, and a code of laws. Later, in the 1850s, Ladies followed suit and created the first sorority: Alpha Delta Pi (Jones). These organizations

These games that the Romans enjoyed so much are unmistakably a mirror image of a society in chaos. The Ancient Olympic Games however reflect a more respectful society in harmony. When the two civilisations are placed side by side the hidden connotation of the age old saying good verses evil is evidently apparent
organized games that athletes competed in. The first Olympics, which took place in 776 B.C., followed very unique and precise procedures, however, they have changed in order to adapt to the 21st Century. The early Olympics were dedicated to the Olympian gods and were staged on the ancient plains of Olympia. They continued for nearly 12 centuries, until Emperor Theodosius decreed in 393 A.D. that all such "pagan cults" be banned (Olympics Timeline). The Pythian Games, one of the four Panhellenic Games

because I could use my hands and feet. I quickly discovered my theory was flawed; nonetheless, the position intrigued me. Observers assume goalkeepers, stationed in the 5832 square feet of the box protecting the 960 square foot net for a 90 minute game, stand idly awaiting the ball. However, goalkeepers are as skilled with their hands as with their feet, which is imperative when a ball is traveling 67 mph towards the net. I was attracted to the position’s intensity, split second decision making,
years older, and I enjoyed the chance to show off getting better and better at my defense, and looked for the chances I could block his shots. Whenever we played one another, the game was intense and I strived to beat him. It was during one particularly intense match that basketball changed my life. I was so into the game that I did not notice when a black car came around the corner and bullets began spraying out of it. The shots buzzed about me like a swarm of bees and instantly I

Sweat rolling down my face, fog expanding from the pavement, a crowd of ten-thousand people all dressed in pink completely noiseless, and a team full of boys with cancer connections that are willing to donate a full game to one person. Cancer was something that my hometown has, and always will take very seriously.

One of the most common ball players in the game are ball hogs. This kind of player tries to prove his skill by taking a shot
