My current debate is over the benefits of joining a Greek Organization. There are many issues regarding the positive and negative aspects of fraternity involvement. The positive being academic achievement, cultural awareness, righteousness, friendship and loyalty, and character improvement. The negative aspects being, stress, time sacrifice, hazing, excessive drinking. However I truly believe that the benefits outweigh the negatives in the grand scheme. The author that currently provides my greatest support is Thomas Hebert. He goes into great depth over individual development one experiences throughout their process. He offers a lot of insight into the who experience through interviews with the participants throughout the span of their college years. I have only managed to compile research on the positive aspects of my debate.
