If Jon Doe U. were to eliminate Greek life altogether at one time, what would the effect be on the university as a whole? let's just say that Jon Doe U. is a medium-sized state school (appx. 15-20,000 students). Would admissions numbers fall through the floor? Would there be significant financial reprecussions (from Greek alums withdrawing support, etc...)? What truly would be the result of an action like this?

Most of us would like to think that our Universities would fall apart if we weren't around.
That's not necessarily true.
Not every Greek alum would withdraw support if a school's Greek system was dissolved--especially if the system was a major train wreck. Does anyone have solid numbers on Greek donations to colleges, and how those might compare to the overall alumni contributions?
