[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn’t read the article, but the wealth at Alabama is shocking - families with private planes, kids with Porsches, etc.  [/quote]

Why is it shocking? Because the underlying assumption is that rich people should go somewhere else? Or that you're shocked to know that everyone in Alabama isn't a dirt poor hick?[/quote]

More than the outfits these girls are wearing are akin to large homes in the DMV mortgages. Like 5-10k. Its OBSCENE. Again, not the location but the obvious wealth disparity we have in this coutry. But I am sure all those kids believe they get hired or their future husbands will get hired because of merit, and not connections. [/quote]

They don’t care if they are hired on merit, that’s not their culture.

Not everyone is obsessed with meritocracy like Panicking Class people are.

OF COURSE you get a job or the right spouse on connections, that’s why the right Greek House is important.

Socially, these outfits are the equivalent of paying for a tutor or college counselor.

Did you really think people are plowing money into this with zero ROI?

the outfits/clothes/jewelry are not unique to greek houses. its a product of social media.
Everyone knows about VCA, Cartier, Goyard, GG, Alo, etc  now.

Even schools without Greek houses tend to have an overabundance of "showy" influencer types.
hell, Yale is actively recruiting for these types.[/quote]
