Fraternal Order Of Saint Thomas More

"Power Corrupts, and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely?"
I am a neophyte member of this known law school fraternity- The Fraternal Order of Saint Thomas More (Tau Mu). And it was my first time to witness the much awaited once in a year event of the brotherhood- election. Unlike other fraternal orders, Tau Mu is simply unique and the best. It has no constitution and by-laws, but the word of its Grand Archon is the law. This is why election is very much scrutinized, deliberated and suggested by all its members. In fact, to choose a Grand Archon is no easy. He must be unanimously elected by all the members present in the election. Only one disagrees, and no Grand Archon is chosen. Of course, the Brotherhood is aware that too much power is dangerous and enimical to the rights of its individual members. That is why, The Grand Archon must be chosen in consideration of his credentials, platforms and stand for the welfare of the Fraternity. Service must come first.
I just pondered that indeed our fraternity is the best! Not only it trains and inculcates to its members the importance of unity and brotherhood , but foremost, it builds and molds great leaders. Leaders who are responsible and are mindful of the use of the powers vested upon them. And this is a best beginning as training ground for a greater responsibility for the greater number. So to all my Tau Brods, let's shout to the world that we are Tau Mus! and Let's continue to be King's good servants, But of course, God is First!
