The UW "Median"

When asked to write about the different borders in our life and immediately the first thing that came to my mind was the border between the University of Washington and the University of Washington Greek Community.   As a member of the Greek Community we are privy to certain events, parties and other social functions that are not available to those who are not members.  This becomes a border for me specifically because I am very good friends with many individuals who are not members of this community and are therefore not allowed to attend these events.  For example, every quarter we have an all house Dance.  Although we are allowed to bring other people to these dances it is very frowned upon because of pre and post dance events.  This border drives a very strict fence between not only UW students but also those who are members of the Greek Community and there 'outside' friends.  This photo is of the UW "median" that helps divid the UW campus for the Greek Community.
