Everything I've Wanted To Tell My Fraternity Little But Haven't

Sorry for telling you that I would cut the brake line of your car if you took that last piece of pizza.

Everything I've Wanted To Tell My Fraternity Little But Haven't
Andrew Hopf

A great number of articles have been written for Odyssey about the relationship between bigs and littles within sororities. I've noticed, however, that there is a surprising dearth of articles about bigs and littles within fraternities. The following are a few things I've never said to Ben, my little, but that I, not being shy by any definition of the world, would like to make public.

1. Sorry for hiding your inhaler. Repeatedly.

2. Sorry for giving you the nickname "Lil Nasty" and for trying to get it to stick.

3. I'm still mad that you wouldn't wear the shirt I had made for you to let the world know that WE ARE A FAMILY.

4. Sorry for telling your formal date that I would "cut the brake line of [her] car if [she] kept stealing our quality time."

5. Sorry for telling you that I would "cut the brake line of your car" if you took that last piece of pizza.

On several different occasions.

To die for. Literally.

6. I still resent the fact that I was the smartest person in our family until you came along.

7. At the same time, I'm glad I finally have someone in my Greek family with similar interests, specifically music.

8. But my taste in music is superior.

9. Thanks for always taking time out of your busy schedule for a cold beer (or a lukewarm bottle of wine).

10. Sorry for screaming "HEY BEN DOVER" every time I see you around campus.

11. The fact that, like me, you're a bitterly sarcastic cynic makes me happy that you're my little.

12. You're the only person I know who can give me a run for my money in terms of devastating insults and I respect you for it.

Ben, thanks for being a decent little and a great friend. My only wish for you is that your little makes you feel as subpar as I do and ignites the same fiercely competitive spirit within you that you did to me.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
