[the invisib1e hand]

allow me to have the honor of observing that all that is wrong with modern society can probably be traced to fraternity boys. And since they can't function without sorority girls, I guess they're culpable, too.

If ever there were a class of humanity not worth its weight in sand...

[Jimmy Valentine]

Kind of a sweeping generalization, don't you think?

The fraternity system hasbeen badly degraded over time with theconnivanceofthe colleges and universities.

In my era (1960's) fraternities taught brother hood, maturity,and trained members for life by giving them responsibilities usually shouldered by adults.

My house had its own kitchen food service, maintenance, managed all of our own funds etc. etc. We were not unusual in this regard.

This binge drinking/branding/sadism stuff is a product of poor upbringing noty the fraternity system.
