No one calls it LA Franklin, the only schools that are usually "La's" are the ghetto schools like bowie and jeff. I would agree with EPChick that UTEP has a higher graduation that 28%, UTEP has around 21000 students and graduates about <2,500 every semester. As an alum and former Greek at UTEP I would say the issue is that most students just don't know about Greek life because a majority of UTEP students are first time college students in their families, some ever first time high school grads. Its just not part of the hispanic culture, and about 80% of UTEP students are either hispanics or mexicans. But as I tell everyone, UTEP is what you make of it, you can get involved and its great, or you can go to school then go home and complain.
