Was it a negative representation of Greeks? YEs it was. But think about how certain chapters have been conducting themselves! If WE as the Greek community were not participating i nthese types of activities, then they would have no basis for this. But as long as chapters continue this type of stupidity (and, regardless of whether it does not happen at YOUR chapter, it still does happen and all too often) this representation will continue.
