No. I agree, too, and it supports the point that I was making.

wow, didn't mean to make this go onto a huge tangent.

But I agree with EE-BO, coke use has gone WAY up - everywhere, not just in the south. I won't say it wasn't around at all when I was in school, but it's much more prevalent now from what I hear, and what I don't understand is where people at a school where most of the students are on financial aid are getting the money for it.

I mean, let's be honest, I don't know a whole lot of guys in fraternities, at least here, who are on financial aid. It's none of my business.....just an educated guess. The dues here are very high, more so than a lot of places. I think if your parents can afford that, they can afford to pay for your school...and most give you money to live off of. This is just my experience, not that way for everyone.

yeah, I know that. But I mean use is also up at schools where a lot of people (Greeks & non Greeks) ARE on financial aid. That's what makes my mind boggle.
