I think it is important to have a unified front when presenting the benefits of membership - that's one reason why I don't like divisive slogans.

The problem with that as a Panhellenic theme is that people don't read it as Greeks are the people who will be CEOs, etc - they read it as Greeks are the snobby people who look down on everyone else and think they run the college.
Making it seem like your life will be shit if you don't go Greek is NOT the way to appeal to "maybe joiners" and it certainly doesn't help those who were cut in rush feel any better.
