I think you're right, and I agree with that. By directional school, I meant people who are like "southern greek life isn't like that, and I know, I went to Middle Tenn. St, or NE Louisiana..." While thats fine, when speak of the attributes of southern greek life, we're talking about that which is distinctive to southern greek systems at big SEC type schools...You're right, there are better academic schools than SEC schools, although there really aren't too many in the south that trump them, or the other schools I would refer to...Texas and the like. Basically, I'm just arguing the defense people make when we say something about southern greek life or southern opinion, which usually consists of "I go to _____ and I'm not like that..." Nobody is saying everyone is like that, but refuting that it basically is like that is pointless. You can go to UGA, be in a bad fraternity, and say "we don't wear brooks brothers or vote republican," which may be true, but that doesn't refute the idea that most do dress and vote like that. If your point is that not everyone acts the way me or macallan or whoever do, that is completely understandable, but often I feel people are trying to sway other's image of the South with a portrayal I don't think is accurate.
