It was trying to lay blame at our feet. As if the "chicken and brew" comment was necessary.

If people want to join whatever organization that's their business. But when they throw jabs at other organizations or types of organizations to support their choices, I wonder if the organization of choice is really in their heart or if they are just temporarily disgruntled. Will the "chicken and brew" guy want to come back to the frat and try to get down at the grad chapter level, for example?

I'm sorry, but I reaaaalllly don't think he was required to bring "chicken and beer to the information session". I somehow just DON'T buy this statement at all.

Like someone said above, it's one thing to be proud of your org, it's another to support your org by "putting down" another.

Exactly. He didn't need to call out the other organization. He should of just focused his comments on the organization he was interested in.
