I think it's fine to warn incoming freshmen that they should adjust to college life before going Greek. But to outwardly tell a "Fine Arts" major not to go Greek is wrong.
Hey, that's fine. What I meant by my post was that it certainly *can* be done, but it is a demanding major. At my school, it's very rare that a music major joins a social GLO. Most join SAI, TBS, or Phi Mu Alpha. Although one comes to mind that is an Alpha Gam and is principal flute in the Wind Ensemble and has very good grades.

So what I really meant was that it can be done; but it would not be easy, and I personally don't know how music majors in social GLOs handle it! I mean, SAI takes up time, but considerably less than the NPC groups. It's cool if you're comfortable enough to add something like that to your scedule; but honestly, you don't see a lot of fine arts majors in social GLOs. You just don't.

Sorry if I was not clear.
