On one hand, James, I agree with you. We're social organizations. Why should we have to justify that to people?
On the other hand, Greeks are always talking about how they're the cream of the college crop, and I think that is what irks some people. If we simply referred to ourselves as social organizations I think most people would be fine with it. What bothers them is us claiming that we're setting an example, holding ourselves to higher standards -- and then slacking on the service aspect of our organizations in order to spend more time getting liquored up.
