After spending some time, thinking about what the concept of social change really is I have become humbled by the role I have in the Greek community. Social Change overall seems like a daunting task. Some of the examples they gave were extinguishing world hunger and helping the homless, these are all massive problems that effect millions of people. So, what makes this concept so hard to tackle at a colliegate level?
At this point I find it difficult to answer this question. I personally believe that this form of leadership has the greatest potential for sustained change, positive impact, and overall growth for all parties associated. The reason for this is the means in which a problem or trend is elliminated. Instead of just treating the symptoms, you elliminate the underlying cause. It is here where the difficulty lies...
The first and biggest step in my opinion is becoming aware of the need for social change. Once you have reached this point you can then start to find the resources that you need to make a social change. By no means are the rest of the steps easy, but once you have had a realization of a need for change you can then make a move and have help in doing so. I hope to aquire the the resources and tools that can help me in instilling this idea of leadership into my fraternal brothers and community members.
