OU this year was fun. I had second row seats! You've gone for 15 years? Crazy. I've gone for the last 3.

I agree with Elephant Walk's assessment. The greek life there seemed to be great. The guys I met, mostly Sigma Chi's (top tier there) were all very legit......but there was something about the whole system that I couldn't quite put my finger on.
You and I have discussed this before. I'll refrain from commenting on it further here... although I sort of want to. LOL.

One thing about W&L is that because so many people are Greek there are all different kinds of chapters, with all different kinds of people. A good portion of them are traditionally southern (probably the majority), with various levels of "tierness" and various types of "southerness." I think I've commented about that elsewhere. But because like 85% of students are Greek there are also chapters that draw all kinds of other students. Yet everyone hangs together to a large degree. Which is actually one of the things I like about W&L (there are a lot of things about the school that make me roll my eyes in retrospect). Maybe that's "the thing you can't put your finger on."
