[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Syracuse grad here. Class of '90. I was in a sorority. I was happy to see that Huffington Post named Syracuse  the #5 "party school!" Greek life is part of the college experience. It does not mean that academics will automatically suffer from joining a fraternity/sorority. In fact, most (if not all) of them have requirements of a certain GPA to remain a member, be initiated, etc. Mandatory study sessions, etc. I am not dismissing the partying & "antics," too...BUT this is all part of many campuses, and many students can/do handle the academic/social balance.

NP.  This isn't Dartmouth.  if you read the Rolling Stone article it was deeply disturbing.  This isn't about "antics" or maintaining a GPA.  This is about alcohol poisoning, people ending up in the ER almost dead, people feeling coerced into drinking massive amounts of alcohol including a culture where you are expected to drink until you vomit and then drink some more.  I wouldn't want my DC applying there, after reading that article..  So I'm interested in OP's question as well.[/quote]
