[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Non-rich kids get into the best houses all the time because of their last name and who they know or because their great-granddaddy was a judge in Jackson/Mobile, descendant of a founding family for the capital city, etc. or their family used to be wealthy and lost all their money through the generations (name matters more than money.)"

From my personal, recent experience, that stereotype of an SEC fraternity caring about family lineage is limited to at most 1 fraternity on campus (maybe 2-3 at Alabama).  If your frame of reference is when you were on campus in the 90s, its a totally different era.

Its much more common for kids from NY/NJ/MD/VA to move to Tuscaloosa, Athens, and Nashville (Vandy) then anytime in the past century.  Our neighbor's son is adopted from Korea and he had zero issues rushing at U of Georgia last year, and roughly 1/3 of his rush friends were from the Northeast or West Coast.

So if your granddaddy wasn't fishing with Forrest Gump, playing ball for Bear Bryant, and doesn't know how to boil a crawfish, you're not going to be alone.
