I would like numbers supporting that Princeton and Harvard
have higher academic performance and lower date rape
incidences than Dartmouth, if you're going to attack my
college. And faculty? Excuse me? I would certainly like to
see proof of that!
And on the subject of academic performance, I will have you
know that a recent Dartmouth report pegged the average
Greek-affiliated student's GPA as significantly _higher_
than the campus average.

That would be your loss. If I were an employer, I think I
would examine candidate's abilities before I looked at where
they went to school.
