Opie,
Several of us posting are from schools where Greek life is just not valued, and trust me it shows in the school's choice of advisor. As for my specific case, when the first thing our Greek advisor did when she set foot on campus was accuse my chapter of hazing with absolutely no basis in fact (my big came back from spring break on crutches - she fell at home with nary a sister in sight, and somehow was "hazed"), sorry, but that's not someone that deserves any respect. We later found that she had wanted to pledge one of our more prestigious chapters and was denied a bid. It showed in her attitude toward us through the years that she was still very bitter about it.
I will add that she is no longer in that capacity thank heaven, but the damage she did to our Greek system is something that will take a long time to recover from.
Please accept that there are advisors out there who just plain suck...rather than spouting the ever-popular "you need to make postive change" rhetoric or criticizing us for telling the truth.
