[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother went to UVa back in the day and just skipped the Greek life. I went to a school with no Greek life allowed. I didn’t want to be on a campus where social life was based on excluding people from the get go. [/quote]

Oh please, if exclusion is your bar then you better toughen up. There are lots of schools, clubs, etc. that  exclude "from the get go." There are lots of things to criticize re: Greek system. That is not one of them. [/quote]

Ugh, you again?  There are no other organizations that require you to audition for, and then pay for, friends.  That’s so basic it’s astounding it has to be explained to you over and over.[/quote]

Because you sound stupid. If you don't think there are groups across college and in adult life that exclude on different bases and require you to "pay for your friends", you are in fact stupid. Greek houses are no different from that in that respect. It's just not. There have been multiple examples of htat given here and on other threads. You just have a stick up your ass about the Greek system. That's fine. But doesn't make you right. At all. [/quote]

DP. And that’s the sort of society you like, is it?  Why is that?[/quote]

DP. like it or not, the college itself (the place you presumably want DC to make friends) discriminates based on the ability to pay. The same is true for private school and public if you go to a neighborhood with expensive homes. The same is true for youth sports, youth camps and even a ton of youth service organizations. the Greek system is just another group where your kid makes friends based on the ability to pay in a long line that your kid has been exposed to since they started school  [/quote]

You can’t even be serious.  Why do girls have to buy a whole new wardrobe for rush?  Gotta look the part, amirite?  [/quote]

Where did you go to school- that certainly wasn’t the case where I went[/quote]

DP.  Maybe a better question is where did you go to school?  My neighbor’s daughter was stressed out beyond belief at all the new outfits she had to buy - one for every day of rush, plus formals, etc.  She goes to UVA.[/quote]
