A few observations about this article (probably insensitive, but screw it):
1. What kind of Fraternity sends e-mails as invitations. What happened to talking to girls in person or even calling them to tell them about the party?
2. Duke would be one of few schools in the south where you would get that kind range of last names of those quoted in an article about greek life. On my campus, that article could have been about the multi-cultural club and still had more joneses and smiths. I guess that's the thing about being a private school. (Not saying that it is a bad thing, just an interesting contrast from, say, Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, USC, Texas etc.)
3. Also on the private school thing: is the overwhelming liberal culture what fuels this sensitivity? The deal with Sigma Nu at Emory and now with the snakes at Duke. Why does everyone care what goes on with a private organization?
I don't mean these to offend, I am just shocked by the difference from what I am used to.
