[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in a fraternity and think Greek life is absurd in hindsight. But to be fair, most of your first paragraph is basically a description of the real world. This process may not be the worst thing for these kids to experience.[/quote] Real world is not totally like that. Yes, you may sometimes get passed over for a job because the other candidate had connections (knows the boss/knows the bosses boss), but 90%+ of getting the job has to do with your work history/your connections that you have built in your professional career, so things that you have control over. I don't go into a job interview where I am judged by how much money I have, how pretty I am, do I wear the "right brand name outfits", etc like sorority or frat rush. [/quote] You say all this and yet admit right in the second sentence that 90% of getting a job involves your connections. Not sure you’re making the counterpoint you think you’re making.[/quote]
