This kind of elitism (wealth, private boarding school backgrounds, certain regions of the U.S.A., and so on) may be something that a few GCers are, or have been, aware of in Greek systems at other colleges and universities.
This was a good read. It noted that only one or two members were accepted who came from a household that was not attached to a wealthy private school. It makes me wonder if that person or persons without the wealth but, with good looks made the list. I mean, if you don't have the wealth, do you think the HPC would accept a person solely on looks? Brains? What?
