My intention was to point out that there are a lot of different ways to have a Greek system at your school. Even very large schools can have very low key rushes. Competitive? Yes, but minus a lot of the drama that many schools think is just part of the game. I think what Penn State does is pretty unusual. I can't think of any other schools with this many chapters that don't have chapter houses, don't require recs, don't require months of prep work, etc. I haven't seen it first hand, but it does seem like a beacon of hope for turning down the crazy with large rushes.

We like the way we do recruitment down south. We like our big houses. We like sitting down to dinner nightly with our sisters in our big dining rooms. It doesn't seem crazy to us. Getting recs. for recruitment is no more a nuisance than getting a rec. for a job. If recs. aren't needed at Iowa or Penn State or NYU, that's fine. Who am I to criticize what works at those schools? I trust my sisters there to take care of business in the way they are familiar. Because it is different does not mean it is dramatic or crazy or wrong.
