You're going to have to allow men the ability to join sororities then, and according to modern scientific estimates, about 75% of college age males are cold-blooded rapists by nature
Fair is fair -
They usually are every weekend...

Big deal. They did this crap at Williams, Bowdoin, and Pomona 25 years ago.

Only if the Throbber is allowed to initiate new sorority members in their house.
H'eh h'eh h'eh. "Initiate".

Probably not a big deal. Most Ivy league frat boys are fags anyway

It's happening at Wesleyan right now. Which is interesting if you know that collection of schools. Wes is pretty much the Berkeley of that crowd, yet, again interestingly, it's one of the last hold-outs with the Greek system (outside of Dartmouth of course). I asked someone how that could be - Bowdoin as you said blew theirs up a long time ago, and Middlebury, which is the far and away the most 'bro' LAC in New England, has also moved on (but not without a fight from the bros).AZDuck said:Big deal.

The explanation I get is that Wesleyan is so liberal that it's classically liberal, in that its student body doesn't like the man telling them what to do, even when it's something they agree with, like blowing up fraternities. Actually chintresting. "We hate them too, but you can't tell them how to run their private affairs." I like it. Still, their President will eventually prevail. Why?
Because nobody but frat boys care about frats, and most people think frat boys are annoying, because they are.
Also, we can all agree that they are liability-machines. Jeebus the frat boys know how to fuck up. -
Fun fact about Rugby, we helped fund our club by running security for the frats on campus when they threw parties.
It was the definitely one of the coolest gigs I ever had. Hang out at a party and stay *marginally sober*, pick up on all kinds of sorority girls, "Oh you aren't in a frat? Oooohhhh you play rugby? AND You have your own place? Can we go back there after the party?", and get to toss frat guys who got too drunk and/or handsy.
Also, I didn't have to put up with any of the stupid frat rules, hierarchy, or eating of the gookie cookies. 10 for 10 would recommend to anyone going into college to join rugby just for that reason alone. -

and right there was my reason. most of my HS buddies at the U (we called it that back in my day) were Fijis, and I got to party there anyway ... but w/o some dipshit telling me to mop up puke.UW_Doog_Bot said:Fun fact about Rugby, we helped fund our club by running security for the frats on campus when they threw parties.

there was a piece in the Times a little while back on this kid who dropped out of Dartmouth and covered his travels in a Dartmouth frat. The shit that kid did was beyond anything I've ever heard of, and I've heard a lot. have to ask yourself how anyone with their shit together enough to just get into the Ivy League or its equivalent could lack the backbone to just say, "fuck off. i'm not drinking puke and I'm not swimming in puke and piss. sorry." it seems pretty straight forward. -
Most of our academis system is set up for people who follow rules well to be the ones to succeed. What intelligent young person is good at following rules and doing as they are told?creepycoug said:
