deuika, I do resent the fact that you think our organizations are not recruiting the best. If you know anything about the olden days, you know that there was less transperency and accountability. The reason why it seems that things is worst is because chapters are being taken to task. Also, there is new regulations and new laws enacted by both the national organizatons and the states that did not exist. That is the difference, fraternities and sororities are more transparent. The university, in many cases, no longer sweep problems under the rugs.

As for your right to say what you will. I agree, however, you should know that in this site, you rights end when John say it those. This, after all, is a private site.

As for the stereotype, I have my doubt we can do much unlessthere is a great shit in paradigm by both the general public and members. These stereotype has been with us for a very long time. Many of them are no longer relevent in some part, but others are very relevant. All we can do is live up to our ideals and know that we are doing the best we can do to upheld it. In the long run, we are mostly accountable to ourselve and each other, and not to the critics.
