I edited my thing because I jsut don't feel that strongly about locals and it truly wasn't the point of that post, plus I didn't want everyone else who read it to take it teh same way you did when it wasn't my intention.

Sorry, I read that you didn't know a lot of locals, that's my bad.
Yes, your opinion is close-minded without a doubt and "basing it on what you've seen" is a great way to form stereotypes and generalizations.
I decided to post the way I did because I don't want people to read that statement the same way you interpret it because there are many locals out there that are actually decent chapters.
But come on, if I stated that "I wasn't a big fan of nationals" I would never hear the end of it.
In all, I like to see people take a unified stance on greek life and the difference of organizations. When this doesn't happen, those that are looking to go greek can be greatly affected.
There is a lot of hatred of locals and I'll never understand it because there are many similarities between locals and nationals. They both do good, and they both do bad....there is no in between.....
