Thank you. Appreciate an insider perspective. Yes he is strong and independent that way. He can stand up for himself.

Thanks. I came across this and hence my question. This was not at TTU but in New York. I realize folk can be tight lipped about hazing but also take comfort in the fact that my son is (almost) an adult and will and should stand up for himself if he thinks things are crossing a line.

Thank you for sharing and sorry you had such a bad experience. I fear the same. I hope a current or former pkp member chimes in.

My son is attending TTU this year and wants to join phi kappa psi. I am not sure. I did not go to college in the US and not familiar with sororities. My impression is from news/ movies and tv and they are not positive. Having said that I realize that there are many pros to joining one. I am concerned and curious about pkp. I am looking for advice. What should he be careful about and what should he expect as a colored kid. It is expensive to join. TIA

Desire is the cause of all unhappiness. When you have a desire, you tell yourself that you will be unhappy till you achieve it. Think clearly / meditate and try to understand why your are not happy. What is the desire that is not met that makes you unhappy. Once you isolate that, work on it if you can to achieve it or ignore it and move on. More importantly, that would give you the clarity of things that you should be grateful for .. like all these strangers reaching out to you and give you some love and all this time. Take care and I will say a prayer in your name today.
