I feel like so many campus papers are almost reflexive in their anti-Greek stance.

I really enjoyed your rebuttal, Sen.

Ironically, she fails to point out--or may not even realize--that dues at schools like
Georgetown, and most of their peer institutions, are far less than they tend to be at large public schools. $700 may sound like a large sum (and is it really when you're paying all or part of a $60k annual bill for tuition, room, and board?), but they can be much higher.
