No, you're fine. I clearly didn't say it right. Excuse me for that. No, I'm saying that if a girl chose to transfer from IU to a lesser prestigious school just to go Greek and that was her reason, I wouldn't hire her. To me, I am more concerned about the prestige of their degree/ rigor of the school's program. If there were other reasons she transferred--that's okay. If IU has, say for example, the top #1 program in the nation for ______ and a woman transferred to Bumblescum U to a bottom program or a program less prestigious, I wouldn't hire her. Obviously, IU is a great school with so many great attributes. If her sole reason for leaving was the Greek situation and she went to a "lesser" school then nope! She needs to look elsewhere for employment. Now, if it was Purdue the person transferred to, which is another great school, then fine. If you choose lesser because recruitment knocked the wind out of you, I'm not so sure I want you working for me. I hope that one makes sense. Some people may say it's insensitive but, I really don't care.
