If you go to this site there is an article on Temptation Island- the reporter says how the contestants aren't any Pi Beta Kappas- read it! I thought that was interesting since I don't think that is one of the more popular sororitys/fraternitys- numbers wise. I have never heard of it- Usually TKe or DG or something like that would be mentioned. So I am not disrespecting Pi beta kappas!

I've never heard of the Pi Beta Kappas either...but I have heard or PHI BETA KAPPA.

PHI Beta Kappa's the oldest Greek letter organization founded in 1776. Today, Phi Beta Kappa is a scholastic honorary GLO that recognizes undergrad men and women who show stellar academic achievement.

Actually the article says the contestants don't appear to be Phi Beta Kappas but...

I didn't think Pi Beta Kappa was an actual GLO.

Yeah you were right he said they don't appear to be, but what was he trying to imply>? that the contestants aren't smart or pretty like them?

The contestants on the first Temptation Island seemed pretty intelligent (attorney, real estate agent, entrepreneur)...

My guess is the new cast isn't too bright. They wrote well enough for their applications, but that's it (hence, they're no Phi Beta Kappas). At least that's what I got from that article.

Well in the 20 seconds I skimmed over the article i think they were saying something about the impact the show affected the opinions of the contestants. And what i got from that comment was "they're not honour students, but they're smart enough to make their own decisions".
