Sistergreek, I agree with this!

When I saw the movie, it took me back to my college days and watching the sweethearts acting like it was their special mission to take care of the frats. They would look at you with much attitude if you dared try to step on the plots (my campus did and still does have plots for frats, and now sorors) like they had personally made the down payment on that piece of land. This might get me in trouble, but they always seemed like Sorority wannabees to me (mind you, this was when I was in college some x number of years ago!).

But I loved the original - had to go out and buy it I loved it so much, and yes, things have changed from the time that the original was made. From what I saw in college, I thought that the movie was very closely related to Fraternity/Sorority life during that time.

Aaaah, the memories!
