YES! If stellar high school GPAs really translated to college success, mandatory study hours would not exist :-P

That being said, the All-NPC average at USC is well above the All-Women's and All-Undergraduate averages.

And why is that a meaningful statistic? Any attempt to claim that sororities make your GPA higher is clearly a joke; I'm pretty sure that's clear.

Well in my experience many sorority women at SC take their academics seriously. Many Greeks strive to join Gamma Sigma Alpha which is a Greek only Academic Honors Society.

"The Society strives to uphold the high ideals of scholastic achievement and therefore, only students with a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or above (on a 4.0 scale) at the start of their junior year or a grade point average of 3.5 or higher in any semester during their junior or senior year are eligible"

Gamma Sigma Alpha was founded at USC in 1989 and there are now 218 chapters across the country.
