Just had to reply to this thread. Like a lot of U-T Austin Grads I have had many friends go to A&M. The anti Greek thing at A&M really comes from the Aggie attitude that Fraternities and Sororities are an SMU and T-Sip(UT-Austin to all non Aggies ) thing, a lot lot of people go to A&M specifically because it is so different from Texas, Texas Tech etc. these folks don't like the fact that A&M has lost some of its distictiveness as it has grown from 15,000 to 45,000 students.
Face it Greeks will always have a place at A&M but it will be way below the corp of cadets, the fighting aggie band, yell leaders , fish camp and all those other weird, goofy traditions that so many of my friend loved.
Personally give me Austin; Barton Springs, Lake Travis, 6th Street and the most beautiful girls in the world...
