For example, there was a special on the History Channel about fraternities. Our chapter at Ole Miss (I'd put it on par with any top chapter of any group in the country) was represented there. They taped and interviewed our members. There was also another fraternity taped in that show (the kid ended up going with them [the fool]). Both groups, however were excellent representations of what fraternities SHOULD be.

I can think of several chapters of my organization that I certainly would not want on that type of show though.

I think a "Fraternity Life" using our Ole Miss chapter on MTV would not only be a great show, it'd go a long ways towards putting our best foot forward.
Hey Ktsnake, do you know if the History Channel has that special that you mention on DVD? I would love to see it.

Also, MTV wants ratings and sensationalism with these "greek" shows. Maybe they should do a documentary about REAL fraternity/sorority life and the positive things that our GLOs do on campus' all across America.
