And to OP I probably wouldn't worry too much about a consultant unless your daughter is going to Ole Miss, UGA, Indiana, maybe Alabama.

umm..did you even read your own article?

"Did you do anything meaningful as a member of your Greek life organization? Did you perform any volunteer work through your fraternity or sorority? Were you on the executive board of the Panhellenic Council or Interfraternity Council? Were you nominated for any awards by your school’s Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs? Things like that are safe to list on your résumé, for sure.

If you can prove that you were more than just a fratty d-bag or a sorostitute on your résumé, then you should go for it. And even if that’s all you were, then maybe you should still consider listing your Greek life affiliation on your résumé, because you never know who could be reading it."

Geesh.

+1 what an idiot.

Please read response immediately above. No apologies needed.

OMG. this is so sick. And exactly why we didn't apply to W&Lee after touring. W&L to my knowledge is the ONLY school that lists greek fees as part of its general fees information because 87% of the campus participates

Yes, I read it, which is more than you did. I said right at the top, I'm with the "hell nos" on Above the Law. Scroll down to the bottom where the author asks for a vote. It says:

Of course, bro. (64%, 740 Votes)
Hell no. (36%, 416 Votes)

Total Voters: 1,156

Geesh yourself
I went to the finest law school in America and worked in the no. 1 law firm. No one ever put sorority or frat mention on their applications to either law school that I ever saw. I NEVER saw one pass my desk while doing associate recruiting with mention of sorority or frat affiliation.
