It's not that collegiate Greeks (or college students for that matter) are less responsible than in the past; I think it's more an issue that we tend to gloss over our experiences as we get older, and forget that some of the same issues existed.
I agree (as a 90's graduate "old bag" ) but it has become much easier with technological advances for secrecy to be compromised. What was one girl talking to another outside of a meeting has now become a Facebook status or email that is too easily forwarded.

Back before the turn of the century, I had email in college but didn't get but probably 20 in 4-years of undergrad. Cell (bag) phones existed but were too expensive for the majority of my friends to regularly own. Don't even get me started on the whole texting thing, I'd rather pass a note!
