Know why? Because those people typically/often get released after the first round, and come back here and blast or blame us/the system/whatever, when it was THEIR own fault!

NPC sororities were founded on scholarship. The whole social aspect came into play a few decades later. Suggest you read Bound By A Mighty Vow for insight on this turn of events in sorority history.

Speaking for myself, I'm honest about it: if a poster has a shaky GPA, pledge the library. Save $ and heartbreak/disappointment.
