I always thought that anyone with half a brain could extrapolate general human interactions and apply it to something specific such as greek life.
Until I read Miss Robbins.
She went to Yale so you know she has at least an Average IQ and probably an above average work ethic and yet she didn't seem to be able to comprehend that people are people and that most of the illustrated activities are far from unique to Greek Life.
Scary.

No matter the intelligence, work ethic, etc. people will see what they want to see. She had it in her head that Greeks are all party hardy alcoholic whores, and so she did her best to seek out information that proved her right. Nevermind that Greeks have higher GPAs, more community service hours, etc. She doesn't see that. So much for journalistic integrity.
