Yeah California's establishment is pretty against Greeks. They (administrators and legislators) see Greeks as elitist, snobby, rich, and into hazing.

Our school is pretty neutral towards Greeks (until it's time to ask for donations from alumni) but they are adding more and more ridiculous regulations regarding parties (hiring more cops ($100 an hour per cop), hiring fire marshals at $300 an hour), grades, and faculty advisors. I guess the grades and faculty advisors are really that ridiculous.

I think Greek life exists in California...it's just subdued and having letters doesn't make you automatically awesome like it seems to in the South.

Oh well still love California anyway

San Jose State - another anti-greek administration, from what I've heard. So that's YOUR experience...there are certainly several schools in Calif. with greek systems that are supported by the administration, and where joining a GLO IS the way to go.
