Most California greeks I know....like most California college students are woefully liberal. The greeks however seem to be more moderate Democrat than their non-greek liberal to commie student counterparts. So it's all relative but I think in general you're right.

Conservative people tend to be attracted to organizations which have limitations and conformity (the Military, GLOs, Country Clubs, etc), and no I don't think there is ANYTHING wrong with that.

Also I think being in a GLO(especially as an exec) teaches you about human nature, why it's a bad idea to let random dudes into events, and how to run finances. I think all three things tend to make people a little less naive and trusting about the goodness of human nature....and thus more conservative.

I think Liberals tend to see human nature as generally good and after having a few computers, DVD players, and stereos stolen at parties and see sleazy stranger guys try to date rape girls at your house that whole fluffy world view begins to change....and you become more cautious.
