ahhh.
I assure you that W&L is fratty. Remember that like 80% of people are Greek so there are all types. The group that had this party was less fratty than most other mid-tier groups. They had a, I don't know, soccer/Florida/surfing vibe. I'm sure you get what I mean. But they threw good parties. They mixed with all but the top sorority.
At W&L, everyone just hangs together for the most part. Every fraternity goes to every other fraternity's parties. The open party system and all that. But the top houses at W&L could compete with top houses pretty much anywhere - and frankly they're probably even smarter and more successful guys in the long run.
I'm basically the only regular poster on GC from W&L (there used to be another one but she left and I see people drop in from time to time but none that have stuck around). I know people have all different opinions of it and the Greek scene. W&L is a smart/nerdy school so that has an effect. The sororities, even the top ones, are all more diverse economically/socially/racially than the top SEC sororities from what I know, and the sororities have a lot of power to deem whichever parties cool. So... yeah.
I honestly think the only way you can really evaluate it is to see it for yourself - I mean I probably wouldn't take my word for it either.
Sorry for the major hijack of this thread. I just have fond memories of the Braces Off Party.
