I think the administration might want to pick someone else to quote since Woodrow Wilson was a fraternity man. as for what they are quoting here, i know personally my fraternity brothers helped introduce me to things i normally wouldn't have consider doing in college (ie. SGA,student legislature and toast masters.....toast masters wasnt for me so i guess 2 out of 3 isnt bad)

i have a feeling both sides need to take a step back and look at the situation from the otherside. i think the greek life missed an oppertunity to work with the administration when they rejected the defered rush. the smart thing would have been trying it for a year or two so they could start to build some bridges with the administration.
