I hope this isn't directed at me - I haven't called anyone a "hater" (or something else in different words). I'm listening to everyone, questioning where I have questions, and making a decision based on all of the info I have.

Also, think of it this way: How many people say things like "you're taking advice from a message board instead of the real people you know?" when they come here asking about certain aspects of Greek life (since we're using those kind of analogies) - this could be considered the same type thing.

This year's group is leaving in two weeks, so they'll be able to come back and share their experiences.
