i think i said this elsewhere...if the university was saying that you couldn't join any organizations your first semester, then fine. seperating out one group from another is not right.
on to the millersville topic...i really don't think that it would fly under npc rules to have some groups allowed to take first semester freshmen...and others not. first of all, when do you do formal recruitment? in the fall, in the spring or both? what about the people who want to check out all of their options? they will want to wait until all of the groups have recruitment.
i agree that greek organizations need to evolve, but i don't think that they should cave to every demand the schools make (no matter how little it seems). by trying to please everyone, we tend to please no one. i also sure as hell hope that people continue to fight for things they disagree with...because that is why we are free to make choices. in the "real" world, people who have difficulty with policies at their place of employment can and do "fight" for what is best. they don't take temper tantrums, or stage protests outside of their offices, but present their concerns in a professional manner. they do what they can to get things to be better. if they truly feel like they can not live with whatever the company has decided, they are pretty likely to leave and find a company whose philosophy is a better fit.
