I think at a lot of big schools, that has a lot to do with it. Especially if you consider the cost of belonging to a group-you have to be pretty well off initially or have mad loans to even be greek at most schools. Now I know it is not like this at EVERY school, and I know every chapter has people who work. But seriously, there's something to the stereotype that rich kids get to be greek more often than the ones who are wokring full time. I know girls who can't even take off a week to rush even if they could afford it afterwards. Just something to think about before we all think we are so much smarter
Good to hear that grades are important though!
Every single one of my sisters is working while at college. We are by NO means rich, most of us paying our dues in installments. I would think that greeks would have a strong work ethic and want to work, after all we do so much work for our organizations as it is. why not get some extra work experience while in college, pllus, a little money never hurt anyone.
