I think it's funny this has become the "Show off my grades" thread.

Haha.
For the record, my GPA when I pledged was nowhere close to a 4.0, but it was higher than the GPA I got the two semesters after that.

Maybe in journalism or liberal arts, but try and do that in difficult classes-calc, chem, physics, engineering, and your ass won't even make Ds. My profs don't care if you come to class, do homework, take notes etc. Everything is based on the three tests you take and possibly a project or two.

UVA is one of the hardest schools to stay in. There is 0 grade inflation.

It's comical that you assume journalism and liberal arts classes can't be "difficult."

You might want to re-read my post on the pledge in one of my chapters who was 4.0 in pre-med while holding both pledge class and chapter offices.
ETA -- I forgot that he was also the president of the student body.
That won't happen in every case, but it can happen.
Blanket statements either way in this situation can't be supported.
At most campuses isn't the All Fraternity GPA generally higher than the All Male GPA? Or am I incorrect about that?

Exactly my thoughts. But at the same token, I know of chapters who have ALL science majors. They get good grades and run an organization. DeltAlum is right, no blanket statement would really work here.

I guess it all depends on how intelligent you are.
