Re: Old Row, New Row
I hate to say this because it sounds so cliche, but if you haven't visited the University of Alabama, I don't think you can really understand this the specific culture that gives rise to the legend of The Machine. [/B][/QUOTE]
This is so true! I am not sure if my sorority was part of The Machine when I attended Bama in the 60's but suspect they were. Even all of the sisters/brothers of a member group are not sure who their delegate is. From what I have heard, The Machine is alive and well at Bama - although maybe not as powerful as they once were.
Greeks on any campus can accomplish the same thing by "block voting" if they will only organize themselves. It doesn't have to be secret - just say we will vote for one of ourselves and trade votes. It happens at all levels - in business and government. Greeks just need two groups to start it.
ROOOOOLLLLLLLLL TIDE!
