TylerL,

To be fair, while the vast majority of people fit your description, I have met both people who regret not joining and who regret joining (the ones who dropped).

Haryjones,

My post has one source, here are others:

Also, keep in mind that many of these schools do not calculate “non-greek GPA” they calculate “greek GPA” and “total GPA” therefore, the differences are often larger than reported.
