I have a different take on this. The way it's put in the song implies that sorority women take less than a full course load in order to have more time to do social things. I'd be offended if someone assumed I wasn't going to graduate in four years (which I did), and my major had the most prerequisites, and required courses out of any other at my school.

You people are ridiculous, it's a fun song to be taken lightly. Sure, it's pretty accurate for the most part, but it also leaves out a lot of truth, it stick to pretty much a very small part of the social spectrum of Southern sorority girls. And I happen to find that most girls who are on a 5 year plan or so, are the graduate college, get married 5 year plans. And college might as well be five years anyway.

And for all you Northern people who want to bash Southerners, screw you. So we don't like change, never have never will.

You all need to consider the campus culture that this song is coming from. Just saying.

(GSU girls - y'all are some of my favorites ever. But you are all completely crazy - the fun kind of crazy - and if I ever saw you studying on a Friday night, I would wonder what was wrong.)

I can't believe anybody would be offended by this song...I think it's adorable. Talking about drinking and a five year plan could be seen as derogatory, but it is obvious he is into her carefree attitude and confidence, and that he respects the girl in order to sing about her. I have no problems with it whatsoever...I think it's a cute song and I wish Alpha Phi was bigger in the south so we could have been included!

As for the second song, I bet it's out of California since all the sororities mentioned are ones that are at most West Coast schools (DG, Alpha Phi, Pi Phi vs. Phi Mu, KD, Zeta)...and as a California girl I'm still disgusted by it. I'm not usually even uptight about vulgarity in songs, but the lyrics in this aren't even clever...it's one thing to do a vulgar song but make it witty (Ludacris, Mickey Avalon, take your pick) but this is just lazy and dumb.
