I never believed how lucky I was to have a mother that did not interfere with my college selection process, except to say when a school was too costly or too far away from my hometown.
If I was 18 now and knew my mom was posting on that site, I think I would probably do something like run off and join the circus.

PARENTS: YOUR COLLEGE YEARS ARE BEHIND YOU. YOU CANNOT RECREATE THEM THROUGH YOUR CHILDREN. IF YOU WERE STILL HUNG UP ON COLLEGE YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE BECOME A PARENT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I'd vote for community college. That would be even more horrifying for them. *Gasp*

Those not in the know do not know!

Oh, by the way, if it wasn't for GDIs who join, there would be no Greeks!

Those GDIs who do not know just do not know what they actually miss.

Although CC has several over-the-top posters, both students and parents, it is a great source of information when embarking on the college search. I just wish we had discovered it years ago.

As there are anti-Greeks on the site, there are also pro-GLO members as well. Some are also members of GC.

Independants are independants. I don't focus on them.
