That's exactly what I was saying in heli-dad's thread. A school can try to mandate love and community and daisies and puppies all they want, but the reality is that you can't put people together completely at random and expect them to all love each other. Maybe just from the law of averages a few will, but not the majority. People join fraternities and sororities because they like the other members of the group, plain and simple. That's why the bonds extend beyond college.
