Lynn, that font is teeny! You can copy it to a word document and then put it into a bigger font.

On my links page, I have a huge listing of all the articles about SL & FL - including this greek101.com stuff.

What's amazing to me is that this announcement happened almost 6 weeks ago - and one news outlet just reported it yesterday as though it just happened.

33, yea, I know! But I wasn't thhhhaatt interested, lol!

I don't know anything about Greek 101 and how they run their business.

It's fair to point out, though, that before year one went on the air there was a pretty intense debate right here on GC about whether MTV would be "fair." Many argued that this show would be good for the Greek System -- that Greek Life was so good that MTV couldn't harm it with selective and creative shooting and editing.

So much for that.

But Greek 101 might haven gotten involved because of the same kind of naive outlook toward the show and its producers.

On the other hand, I also don't know when Greek 101 got involved in the show. If it was in the second season, they obviously didn't do their homework. If it was sometime during the first season, they took an awful long time to make a decision that the show is damaging.

A cynic might surmise that Greek 101 saw the content, but hung in with MTV until the hue and cry started hitting them in their bottom line.

DeltAlum,

They got involved the first season. To be fair, most of the complaining about the first season was on the behavior of the pledges, not the initiated sisters, and SigmaAEPi had quite a few requests to expand to other campuses. Also, the school had no prob with them. This time around it's another story.

Oh, and did you catch who the replacement sponsor is - L'Oreal. I would guess they have a mite bit more $$$$ than greek101. so I don't really think MTV is too upset.

Did anyone else notice that the Greek101 ad popped up on GC and, quickly after, they pulled their sponsorship?
Think there was a connection?

And the fact that is you mention Greekchat as the discount code, you save 5%?

I think it was a good move (a bit late, but better late than not at all).

Kudos to Greek 101 for doing the right thing. It is very vital to portray GLOs in positive light, since we have been getting a bad rap for years. In their website, they have page (in their "lounge") that has links to articles portraying GLOs in a very positive way (i.e community service and charity). As for MTV, they should do their part to allow us to maintain a good image. Enough already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/madgo.gif http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/screams.gif :mad:

Really? I'll have to pass that on to my chapter.

Yah i think they mention it on the advertising on gc.

Appropos to nothing, but everytime I see your sig line, I think Helen Keller is a 2003 graduate!


No, I am not a blonde!
