Now I know there are differing opinions on these matters but I've been hearing talk in my circles that now GPA is a barrier to membership and perhaps there is a shift towards eliminating a GPA requirement?
I'm all for making Greek life more representative of the general population but honestly I just feel like throwing out a GPA requirement just seems a bit much, I'd be curious to see if others have been seeing anything similar or what thoughts the chorus might have.

Dropping the GPA requirement makes me throw up. Why are the kids in college anyway? Why have all the GLOs had GPA requirements through the years and they're suddenly dropping them? Who's fired up about having members who can barely stay in school because their grades suck because they live at the bar?
Seems like some people think Greeks should have quotas of various subgroups and that is revolting too...forced association, anyone?
