FIELD NOTES
When I was in college, I joined a fraternity. It was fun and all, but what I remember most was how exclusive it was. I remember one year, we had a pledge class with this one guy in it who was just struggling to meet the admission requirements. Our leadership team had a meeting one night and voted to not allow him to continue the pledging process. It was rough. Because I knew him best, I was tasked with telling him the bad news. He broke down. He was hurt. The door had been shut in his face.
I didn’t care for the fraternity that much after that. Exclusivity is not my cup of tea. I’d rather have a seat for everyone at the table.
QUESTIONS FROM THE FIELD
