I work with Greeks every day, and one of the most common concerns I hear (from Greeks) is that the university and community have no respect for them and only see them as a bunch of drunks.

I don't know if any of you share these concerns, but making pub crawl shirts, or any other shirts that promote alcohol or degrade women, only perpetuates the stereotypes that so many Greeks are fighting against. I'm not saying drinking is bad, because I don't think it is (when done legally and safely), but you can't expect people to think you aren't just a bunch of drunks when you wear shirts that advertise that a bunch of you are going to get drunk. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Not making any judgements here. Just something to think about...
