Does anyone think it will lead some high school/new-to-college girls to the assumption that it's simply that easy to buy a house and make a new sorority? Or does anyone think the show is starting to give off a bad impression of Greek life as a whole?

They already think it's easy. Just take a look at some of the threads we've had on that topic lately.

If I understood last night correctly - Frannie and Evan were getting a house together and then when she barges in during initiation she says that she has rented a new sorority house....

I wonder if the writers ever look at these boards - it sounds like something that someone would post on here, like a "I hate my sorority and want to start a new one" thread!

HAHA. Very true.

I felt bad for Ashley... Cassie kind of deserved it as she really hasn't tried to be the bigger person, but Ashley has tried, and wow...

And when Evan hit Rusty with the paddle, OMG, ridiculous...

So far I don't think the show has really given a negative portrayal of Greek life. It shows truthful, not so great aspects of Greek life like feuding between fraternities, but I don't think it's anything people didn't already know or assume happens in the Greek system. I don't think anything has been too over the top (except starting the new house). The fight between Kappa Tau and Omega Chi was a surprise last night, definitely wasn't expecting that!

I felt soo bad for Rusty. Granted, I didn't see the beginning (I started watching when Rusty snuck into Casey's room) so I don't know the whole drama, but hitting with the paddle was sooo uncalled for.

I really hope Rebecca doesn't leave, but something tells me she might. I also have a theory that she might play a "double agent" type thing to ZBZ and Frannie's new sorority.
