This novella attempts to combine some of the social settings I was exposed to while at Ball State. I was in a fraternity and heavily involved with the Student Government Association. When I learned of a group similar to the Brotherhood in Alabama, I wanted to write a creative project using that theme. From there it was just a matter of writing the plot. I just combined what I already knew about Greek systems and student government into the Brotherhood.ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:I must begin by thanking Mary Clark-Upchurch. Without her guidance and grammar advice I would be completely lost.I would also like to thank Tracy Curtin, who would stay up and watch me type. Even though she would have had me end the story half way through, she still deserves special thanks for all her ideas.
