For those of us "seasoned" greek alums, I think you'll also notice that this perception changes over time.

For example, two sororities at a local campus - over a period of five years, switched places at the "top" and "bottom" of the hierarchy (numbers, quality, "social attributes" (for lack of a better term))...and it was quite interesting seeing how each was perceived and talked about amongst other greeks over a longer period of time than most collegians get to experience. It was almost comical.

Unfortunately, this is all "stereotyping"...

I can't think of any "national" overall reputations that are necessarily "weak" or "strong", with one exception, because I unfortunately see one particular GLO's name in the headlines quite often, from various campuses, all regarding hazing and risk management incidents. Not that this organization is "weak", but they sure seem to make headlines a lot more often statistically speaking than any other. (And, NO, I will not mention their name, even by PM, to keep ugly rumors from starting)....
