To a point, I'd agree and would concede the point about brotherhood being "learned" later. But there may be some difference between those who come to college with no knowledge of the Greek system other than what they've seen in movies and TV, and those who have grown up with Greek parents, siblings or other close relatives or friends. The latter, I would guess, have a more developed idea of what Greek life is about and a better grasp of the brotherhood/sisterhood concept, even if they haven't experienced it firsthand.

Of course, for those people, being a legacy might be one of the first factors in choosing a GLO.
