And they haze the CRAP out of their pledges. But they're not real Greeks, so the school can't touch them.
I'm in a local. We don't have to belong to IFC, or participate with the other Greeks, but we do it because it's what we ought to do. And these schmucks come in and give Greeks a bad name and there's nothing that can be done?!

Hmm. Well I have to say what you just posted did offend me. While I do not agree with what you *say* is going on with Kappa Kappa Psi, nor am I a member of Kappa Kappa Psi, I am a proud member of Delta Sigma Pi which is a professional fraternity for men and women in business. I wear my letters with pride and still consider myself Greek even though I am not a member of an NPC organization. We work just as hard when it comes to community service and everything else.
Kappa Kappa Psi *does* have a governing body (Professional Fraternity Association) and even though there might not be a PFA council at your school I think it is extremely *unfair* for you to judge an entire organization just by one chapter because they are not "real" Greeks in your book.
And it's not just these "fake" Greeks that give all Greeks a bad name. Unfortunately, sometimes hazing does happen in NPC, IFC, and other types of GLO's, so it's not just these "fake" greeks giving you a bad name.
