Yes, jocks get away with lower grades. When they win, they're bringing prestige to the university and a ton of money from supportive alumni. If they don't graduate, that's no one's problem but their own. It isn't the university's job to spoon feed them onto the honor roll.
Greeks bring neither fans nor prestige to the school-- Greeks are not bringing in positive publicity (the fraternity car wash really isn't front page news) or attracting students to campus for their programs-- it's comparing apples to oranges. Greeks are social organizations. University athletics are campus-wide athletics programs.

Perhaps this thread should have been placed or located in "News" but unless/until Jon moves it, here it stayes.
Few issues: One would have to wonder the difference in donations between Greeks and non-Greeks.
And I am sure most of us here could post well known Brothers/Sisters.
And back to a GC related matter: Greeks are on sports teams.
My school was a small school and we had five Brothers who were on the football team. The fraternity next door had the entire starting line-up of the Basketball team ( #1 NCAA ll ).
So there is an issue with Greek GPA's with sport teams.
Anyone at GA know how many players are Greeks?
FYI:General graduation rates: 41% in four years, 74% within six years.
