I know for sure that Nebraska, as well as both Kansas and Kansas State require a 2.5 to rush...

As far as staying a member? Not sure. At Nebraska, I've never heard of anyone getting dismissed by the University for grades, though it happens all the time that the chapters will give someone the boot...

OK. We have established the GPA for our fraternity.

But the question remains...

Do YOU think it is OK for colleges and universities to set higher GPA standards for Greeks than that of the rest of the student population?

At all the schools (with a Greek system) I have checked (the ones my to which my daughter applied), all require a Greek 2.5 or better to pledge and
only a 2.0 to stay in school or non-Greeks.

I understand the need to be academically stronger to help balance the entire college experience.

But that is not the question. I am asking is it OK. there could be some legal issues here in some states.
