Professional or service?
I guess it varies from campus to campus. I can say that my experience is that what you are saying is typically
not the case. Apparently, our experiences vary though.
I don't want to get into a pissing match on this, but I really never felt like we had to compete socially with the service and professional organizations. As for professional organizations, my experience is that they have one business meeting per month, MAYBE a speaker...
Many chapters take their academics seriously. Some have very well kept up test banks as well as serious 'study hours' at the chapter house. I know that my chapter was extremely serious about these things. In fact, where the original poster's example was concerned, the brother who told him not to worry would not have been in that position, he would have been on social probation with mandatory study time at the house.
