Do you agree with these recommendations?

I DID read the book. I believe that in order to sound credible in a debate, you should examine all the facts before you.
I agree with her recommendations completely. The entire system is completely antiquated.
And CaSigKap, the philanthropy the chapters do is dwarfed in comparison to the social problems that greek life represents.
So again, I say, instead of attacking the book, attack the problems that exist. They DO exist. It doesn't matter where she got the information from. I don't approve of the undercover method myself, but the point is, this stuff is happening. As Greeks, there is an obligation to recognize it. Continue to support your charities and campus life, but help your members eliminate these problems.
