That just interested me and I wondered because I rarely ever hear someone who went Greek say that they don't care for their alma mater (or they hated college).
Let's just say my father didn't give 17 year old me one choice of where I went to college, which was the hometown University. I also didn't get to pick my major, other than which program that the School of Business offered. I hated the school, hated the athletics program, hated my major, and hated being there. The only redeeming thing was AOII and Greek Life. Lesson learned as our two in college currently both chose their schools after a slew of college visits, live on campus at their respective schools and are both doing very well in their majors of their own choices.

Oh, did I mention I was and am a life-long fan of the University of Kentucky?
