No. Evaluate their hotness and then their good grade. Actually I'd like you to weigh it like this: 1.5(A) + B = X where A is hotness, B is grade, and X is the weighted total. It's linear so if you want to do 9th grade math and create a graph I will accept this as well.

CAn you explain to me the factors for evaluating their hotness? Face, Body, Overall, Jean Ability, etc?

I need some more parameters for A in order to give you an effective presentation.

A=(Face)^3+2(Body)-(Bad jeans)^5

Now you're no longer linear though. I think you need to involve a matrix in this somehow or it won't be fun.

And what am I getting out of this?

The institutions surrounding me don't support greek orgs. , such as Kings College, College Miseracordia, The University of Scranton (which is a Jesuit University), Johnson College, Bible Baptist College, Penn State Branch Campuses (which is a state university obviously, but don't have greek systems because only the main campus does), Marywood University, Lackawanna County Community College. Not ALL of these are Catholic based but the majority are, and it seems as though its consistent that they don't support greek orgs. due to many reasons, which I dont agree with.
Thank you for all of your messages, I wasn't sure if it was a universal thing!! I'm glad that its not!! Now all I have to do is TRANSFER ;)
i grew up there!! my mom was soooo mad that i wouldn't even apply to dah u. i know that wilkes won't host fraternities because they are exclusive, but they do have professional fraternities. i know some people who were in the pharmacy fraternity. kings has something like them...but they are religious based and i don't think they are part of any national organization. most of the schools in that area are commuter schools. of the people i graduated from high school with, about 50% of those going to college went to those schools...and commuted. i only know one person who actually lived at misericordia.

I decided that I would make a listing of Jesuit Colleges and Universities to see which ones have a traditional greek system or not. Since most BGLOs and LGLOs can function through metropolitan chapters, I won't note them. If there is an "unrecognized" chapter of a national GLO on a campus that does NOT have a recognized system, I will note it.


Boston College
Canisius College, YES
College of the Holy Cross
Creighton University, YES
Fairfield University
Fordham University
Georgetown University, NO but has a chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi
Gonzaga University
John Carroll University, YES
Le Moyne College
Loyola College in Maryland
Loyola Marymount University, YES
Loyola University Chicago, YES
Loyola University New Orleans, YES
Marquette University, YES
Regis University, NO
Rockhurst University, YES
Saint Joseph's University
Saint Louis University, YES
Saint Peter's College
Santa Clara University, YES
Seattle University
Spring Hill College
University of Detroit Mercy, YES
University of San Francisco
University of Scranton, NO
Wheeling Jesuit University
Xavier University

Of course this is incomplete, I will edit the post as we get more info. And FYI, I only included Jesuit Universities because 1) the ones that ban them seem to say that frats/sorors are against the Jesuit mission, and 2) because I went to one and worked for one!
If you're talking about St. Joseph U, Philly, then yeah, they have greek life. I know that they have chapters of Alpha Phi and Tri-Sigma there. (I visited there when I was choosing colleges)

Senusret, I believe there are people from Santa Clara here on GC. I am about to head off to work so I can't search now. If you don't find it I will do a quick look when I get home.

The University has SAE, Sigma CHi, Pika, and Sigma Pi mentioned, I am sure there are more.

I want to say Theta is putting a colony in there, but I could be wrong. One of my sisters went to University of San Francisco, but if there was greek life she never mentioned it.
Theta just installed its Eta Lambda chapter at Santa Clara 3 weeks ago.:)

What about Pepperdine and Univ. of San Diego? I know both have GLOs.

OK - Pepperdine is Christian but not Catholic- my bad. USD is Catholic.

There is a chapter of DPhiE at St. John's University in NYC. :)

Munchkin03 12-04-2003 12:28 AM
No for Fordham. Mr Munchkin's aunt went there, and because they have no "frats," :rolleyes: that was one of the reasons she went.

If I read you quote correctly did you say that Xavier was the only predominately Black college in the US. That's not right.:rolleyes:

Questions- I noticed that some schools have national chapters but are not recognized by the school. I thought in order to be national you had to be recognized by a school. Can someone explain this to me?

I think that you'd be able to find answers to lots of your questions by searching.

Anyway, this happens because some schools flat-out outlaw Greek life, but national organizations say that it's okay to have a chapter there. Ex: AEPi at Georgetown, everybody at Harvard, everybody at Princeton...

Peaches-n-Cream 12-04-2003 02:34 PM
Just doing a little searching.

Iona: Yes
Fordham has Phi Alpha Delta law fraternity.
Manhattan College: Yes
Marist College: Yes

WenD08 12-04-2003 04:39 PM
my mistake. i meant to say that Xavier University in New Orleans is the only predominately Black Catholic university in the US.
excuse my bad typing:p
