I am now the Recruitment Advisor for my chapter and I would pay to have this done away with. The University is placed in a small town area, with the largest town with malls, dining, activities 45 miles away. I worked in various student affairs departments while a student there and I strong feel that if students were allowed to join Greek letter organizations then the retention rate of the university would increase. Many students leave the university by December of their first year. There is not a lot to do and very little to jump in and get involved in as freshman...within a few years I would love to state this case to the university since I will be working with my chapters recruitment for a while.

If there's nothing for non-Greek students to do, then there's nothing for Greeks to do either. I mean, just because you go Greek doesn't mean that you automatically get to go into a special restaurant or club or something. Especially at a small school.
