People aren't rude unless you give them a reason to be. If you ask for advice just to complain about the answers given, you'll get the same response.
Well if you even read your recent post, you haven't even answerd my question from the start ( and doubt that you tried to ).

Though, this is a decent size greekchat.com community online. With the few decent responds I got, maybe more will come.

I didn't answer because 1) you were directed to other threads with the same topic and 2) it doesn't matter what "rank" a certain school is. It's sad to base your college choice on how high up the Greek ladder it is.

You claim that we're assuming that this is all you're concerned about, but you haven't given us reason to think otherwise. Plus, your lax spelling and grammar skills prove that academics are not high on your list of priorities.

Knight Shadow most that I would say have already been said to another user.

I'm not basing my college on how high the greek system is, though that's your opinion, and could care less what you may think.

I'm not surprise my spelling have been lax and grammer skills, and reason have been explained on other threads.

It's obvious I'm looking for other comments then the ones you and other recent users have been posting.

You claimed that you wanted the rankings so you could make an educated decision when picking a college. Rankings don't matter. Period.

It is surprising that your spelling and grammar are terrible, considering you've tried to make yourself into the poster-child for academics.

If we continue to tell you the same thing, there are probably no other comments. And again, if you don't like the answers you're being given, find another source.

I have more than one source for college information, though when speaking of greek systems this is one of the top ones.

I never claimed to pick a college base off greek system. Though I did say I have my list of top choices already... and other universities I'm looking at.... from there I was seeking users opinions of their greek system. That would only be if it was mention in a list base off their opinion. From lists that was suppose to be given... I would have observed them all, compared them to professional ranking, and from there with my already top choices... hopefully it would help me observe their greek systems.

I'm not 100% sure if I'll even join a fraternity, but leaning towards one ( if to join one) it would be important to know these certain universities ( that I know of) greek system... I already know they are high reguarded in academics etc.... no need for users to tell me how they are, and I would most likely go to collegeconfidential.com for such.

Just a quick thought... we always reminded our pledges (and actives too) that you're in college for an education first, and that everything else is secondary. This being the case, should a university's Greek system really matter that much? Isn't it more important to first pick a university that will prepare you for the career you want, then choose your best fit among the fraternities there? Just my $0.02.

Right, college education is first. I've long ( since high school)have made my list of universities completely based off college education... and I know what universities I'm looking at. Though I'm just looking for users opinions on universities greek system.
My question that I asked does not need to say
Example: What school has these academics, location etc... and oh yeah greek system....
I know that information already, I just don't know about certain schools I've listed greek system. I find these schools interesting, would like to look more into them, and one of their areas I'm looking more into is their greek system.

Getting lists from internet usernames does not help you "observe" a Greek system. Visiting with and talking to people in real life (as many posters have told you) helps you observe.

You are focusing on the wrong things at this point (as many posters have told you). You need to worry about graduating high school and staying involved -- and if your typing is any indication of your abilities, you need to log off GC right now.

Talking in circles will not make me back off.

It's obvious that we are two different people.

Getting a list from internet does help me observe, just like surveys help people observe.
I've talked to people in real life about greek system, I'm just also talking about it online.
I'm not focusing on anything wrong at this point, and no need to explain to you my personal life... and think it's ridiculous that just because I've asked such a question I'm now not focusing on graudating, future job etc...

With your time online it seems more like you ( if your a college student, or what you may claim ) may not be focusing on the right things as you should... such as schooling and not online social chats that I wouldn't have as much time to do in college as you yourself do and other rude posters.

Actually have stayed on this site a little longer than planned, and now need to sign offline.

Maybe I can read more decent answers tomorrow.

Here's a thought and assuming that you really do seek information about Greek life at midwestern colleges/universities, perhaps you should be more specific for us GCers and ask for information about Greek life at 3-5 of the schools you are already considering? We cannot guess exactly what you are looking for as far as academics (aside from a pre-med program) nor have we a clue to your desired location or academic budget when it comes to a school. Perhaps you tell us where you are considering attending in 18 months and GC may be able to set you up with informed Greeks from those specific schools.

Can we got over stuipid drama and ctually reply tot he post. I have only seen to or three posts that actually gave an answer. If you looking for great schools with great greek systems: Ole Miss, Alabama, UGA, Texas, SMU, Auburn, Florida State. You could make arguements for many more but the thing is they are all in the south. Greek life in the South is dfferent than anywhere else. If you get the chance to check out any of the schools listed please do and good luck!

Thank you - this is what I was thinking. OP, give us the list of schools you're considering for academic reasons and we'll tell you what we think of their greek systems, if they have one.
