at SCAD students being horrible just because one person happens to know a couple that chew their toenails or whatever. I seriously considered SCAD as a teenager before deciding to go liberal arts (I had a hard time committing to one direction as far as my future went, so I wasn't ready for an art school) and would LOVE to be able to earn an MFA from SCAD one day. It's my first choice should I ever get around to an MFA. Actually, one of the best professors I've ever had graduated with an MFA from SCAD. Coincidentally, he's also one of the most "normal" professors in our art department.

"Artsy" does not automatically mean "not sorority material". Sincerely, Alumiyum (B.A. in Art w/French minor and B.F.A. concentrating in drawing and printmaking)

ETA: Those who have said students at SCAD and similar schools likely do not have time for Greek life are correct, IMO. It was hard enough to earn a studio art degree at a liberal arts school as an alum, and those that do it while remaining active are extremely good at time management...they have to be. I'm sure at a "real art school" it's about 543504309 times harder to fully commit to a sorority, and faculty probably wouldn't be jazzed about students participating in an activity that is so time consuming.

Exactly. One of my best friends from high school went to SCAD, and she's just about the smartest person I know. She received a 4.0 there, and she was in the Architecture program. Who WOULDN'T want that kind of person in their sorority?!

The only obstacle I would see is the time commitment. I think she slept in the studio more nights than she slept in her dorm/apartment.

ETA: I just saw your ETA. Obviously I agree
