If by "ordeal" you mean "revived membership and interest in Greek life after a decade & a half of low numbers" then yes, Animal House certainly did that.

I'm not sure what this says about me as a person, but I was definitely a little bummed that my Greek experience wasn't more like Animal House. Which I think centers around the differences in the 60s and the 90s than it truly does about what I gleaned from Mandy Pepperidge, Greggie, Dougie et al.
