I never see these types of articles as talking about "us."

Kudos to DoubltTDG for contacting customer care. I was just looking for someplace on the webiste to complain myself. Most of the stuff in that article reads like a 7th-grader's report on Iceland. There is so little research that went into this article, it's ridiculous.
"Sororities and Fraternities are part of a long held social system on university campuses known as "the Greek System".
Really? Wow, that IS one of the most crucial things I should know about a fraternity or sorority. I would have been so confused!

On a better note, this article looks pretty benign (and accurate):

Not sure about this one:

It's a mixed bag.

The only reason I was so appalled was that it was the SECOND thing that came up...which means it gets a LOT of hits. For incoming freshmen, it is not unusual to google something you know little about...and this article is very misleading.
