I find it interesting that they thing underage drinking and other "social" problems will go away because the Greeks do. Are they nuts? That's what college kids do. At my college it didn't matter if you were Greek or Independant or not in a group at all... that was just the "culture". Not that I think its right, or wrong, but I bet if they look at Dartmouth in 5 years they will see the same problems.
As far as it interferring in academics, most national Greek groups have academic standards that you must adhere to. And even at the Naval Academy and West Point, where there are no fraternities and sororities and it is academically rigorous, students report that binge drinking is a problem and in some cases interfers with their classwork and/or they leadership duties.
WAKE UP DARTMOUTH! You're nuts!
