You know, I always thought that greeks might be considered conservative by some because there is a lot of tradition involved in greek life -- I don't mean the traditions of our organizations -- I mean the stuff about greek life that, in my opinion, conforms to very traditional ideas of, say, male and female roles in our society. Maybe people assume that those who choose to be involved with such things are conservative -- I'm not sure.
I could be totally wrong, but who knows. I think here on GC there's a pretty even split between people who are generally conservative and people who are generally liberal, but I haven't been keeping track.
