If people think that TFM and TSM are what Greek life really is all about, then chances are they already held those assumptions prior to visiting the site(s).

I would hope that most intelligent incoming college students would be able to recognize these sites as being used purely for entertainment. They're even advertised as humor sites. Collegehumor.com has been around forever, seemingly giving a bad name to every college and university around the country. However, I highly doubt that site has greatly influenced students' decisions to attend college, not attend college, party harder, and/or party less.

If anyone is completely buying into what's being portrayed on a humor website, then they need to step away from these sites and do some actual research. Either that, or they'll get to college and find out that not everything they see on the interwebz is for realz.

ETA: Where the heck did that smiley face at the top of my post come from?
