The school where I got my master's degree has undergone quite the transformation in the two decades since I last attended. The school had a well-deserved reputation for the sciences and wanted to build on that. Administration started to construct dormitories in order to change from a commuter campus to a more residential campus. The student population started to grow. Overall the school ramped up its programs and is now regarded as an elite state institution. Thus the value of my degree has risen over the years.

Initially I thought that the administration was insane to change the focus of the school, but I have to admit that they succeeded.

I would describe greek life there as still in the growth stages. Greeks had a tough go of it while the school was a commuter campus (many students were too busy with school, work, and commuting to rush,) but they have a new hope now for a stronger future.
