What has GC taught you?

* There are about half a bajillion GLO's that I have never ever heard of. (but as a result, have read up on a bit)

* It's taboo to actually post anything about actual chapters of actual GLO's. Especially in Rush stories.

* Everyone's chapter was the Big Dogs on their campus.

* The south is still very "South".

If the internet had existed when I was in college, I would be in deep doo-doo.

yeah... if i were left to my own devices (that is, my campus and letter sightings in the street) i wouldn't even know about 3/4th of the GC population's orgs.

i actually find it more admirable when someone can say "we werent the biggest or the baddest on campus but dammit we held our own and had a helluva time!" vs "OMG we were the best and if you didnt get a bid/invitation, your social life was over."

Amen to that. There are ups and downs, and just because you were a top dog "back in the day" it doesn't necessarily mean it's the same now (or vice versa!)
