This isn't boring at all! You write beautifully. I can really 'see' the atmosphere and it's wonderful. I'm looking forward to the rest.

I think I will tell mine. You gotta love the 80s!

BTW - 22 sororities? Holy Cow!

Oh yes. I've never been down to the U of I campus, but I hear it's quite impressive for us greeks. See, we midwesterners can do greek life pretty well, too! I'm looking forward to the rest of the tread!

Only 19 sororities now, but over 40 fraternities. And housed, too.

I haven't been since I was a pledge way back when (we road tripped to visit them) but our house is fabulous.

My mom and I went to buy my sister some stuff from their Greek stores, and we spent over an hour driving around and looking at the houses and figuring out which ones had moved since she'd been there, and into whose house. It was fun!
