And completely irrelevant but necessary to know, there were quite a few Harvard bigwigs involved in our colonization process. We don't place chapters that aren't in accordance with university administrations.

Oh for crying out loud in a bucket.
What I meant to say is, if you're a KKG from Yale and meet another KKG from Yale at your interview for Big Giant Job I believe it's the "Yale" that's going to put you over more than the "KKG." Perhaps our Ivy League Greeks on here can offer insight.
So yes, you need a large sorority with networking connections, but to automatically assume that the ones at the Ivy League schools ARE those would be shortsighted on your part.
As far as the "Harvard bigwigs" - KKG has only been at Harvard for two years. Oh, I understand, you mean they were involved with your Harvard colonization. That may be true, and I wasn't accusing Kappa of putting in chapters underground - just pointing out the fact that Harvard's and U Penn's systems are as different as, say, W & J and Penn State's. "Ivy League" isn't a blanket for a certain type of Greek system.
