Everyone here assigns stereotypes to others, it's human nature. But, the truth is there are good people in fraternities and there are bad people in fraternities. It's impossible to be completely unaffected by those you choose to surround yourself with, however the way someone dresses shouldn't be what we choose to use to define someone. avergirl, I'm ashamed to share a campus with someone who chooses to base their opinion of someone based solely off of what they see in a few pictures posted on facebook. Maybe you don't see eye to eye with Daniel on many issues, but just because he's in a fraternity doesn't mean that he's a bad person or that you may not have a lot in common with the guy. Perhaps I'm an idiot or maybe I was raised wrong, but I don't choose to judge people based on outward appearances, so sorry if I offend you, but the division on this campus is ridiculous and the blame doesn't rest solely with greeks and non greeks, each party is to blame as much as the other. So before you go saying a fraternity guy feels one way without actually knowing him, maybe you should check your own biases and look past the exterior. We might all find that we have a lot more in common than you think.
