Also, observing the greek system at my college campus and the friends I made along the way really helped too.

It is just interesting how now there is so much information available and people still choose to be lazy. My roommate being one of those people and I am trying so hard not to go off on her but I have had to put her in her place a few times and she still doesn't get it. I have noticed, especially on GC, that some of these potentials feel some type of entitlement...like we are suppose to tell them whatever they want to know whether they need to know it right now or not....I don't know...I am real ill on my roommate right now so I will just stop here before I say something real crazy!
I don't want to sound too old (I'm 30+) but I'm noticing that many of the young people today feel a sense of entitlement about everything. This goes back to poor parenting and not preparing children for the world. It's sad but many are in for a rude awakening in many areas of life.
