I'm probably in the minority but I didn't think the article put any good light on sororities. Especially the "core four" and the rumors about them.

I have to admit that I'm kind of glad ADPi wasn't mentioned at all in the article (our Omicron chapter is Duke).

I grew up in Durham, and lived about 10 minutes from Duke. My impression from the student body is that Greek Life is looked down upon, even though there is a rich history behind a lot of the chapters. I'm pretty sure that the writer of the article reflects a lot of opinions from the student body as well. I do agree that the article did not put a good light on sorority life and the recruitment process.

Duke blog

Rolling Stone quoted from a blog authored, apparently, by a Duke fraternity member. As negative and damaging as the other articles were, this blog is unbelievable. I can't imagine any incoming freshman--or parent--reading this and wanting any part of recruitment. In my opinion, this is the type of thing that hurts the image of Greek life nationwide. Even though the "Core Four" are mentioned most prominently in this "obsrvr" site, it casts a negative light on other groups--both male and female--as well. You'll need to click on the appropriate section titles to read all the postings.
