The stereotypical fraternity experience is well-known, negative, and (unsurprisingly) not true of every chapter. Most people think they know what Greek life is like - but what do the insiders say?

This week, Dr. Ross and student producer Ashley Worley explore Greek life within UT Tyler's Kappa Sigma chapter. Joining the discussion are Kappa Sigma's alumni advisor Jared Daniels and chapter member Erick Zamarron to share the impact of brotherhood on their college journeys. Together, they dive into the history of fraternities, misconceptions of Greek life, and the personal growth opportunities they've encountered. For curious students, the stories may not be what you expect.
