Okay, can we quit it with comments like these? They just make US look stupid and petty, not the other way around, and they're not funny either.


One of my creative writing teachers was reading this book, and she let me skim the chapter on pledging. She uses a fake name for the sorority, although I'm sure that someone with a working knowledge of the Syracuse (?) Greek system could figure out which sorority it was. I don't want to pass judgement because I don't know any Syracuse Greeks personally, but some of the rumors I've heard about the system there make it not entirely surprising that a book like this would take place there.

Anyway, I'm not going to comment further because I haven't read the whole book, but there is something that irks me about blaming all frat boys for the evils of the entire world. Way way way too much of a generalization.
