The Greek Report card is not unique to Penn State, but creating a national database is their idea. national Greek orgs have fought hard against that. Locally, they fought hard as well.

I understand the impulse of those who think highly of Greek life to defend it, but I think maintaining a good gpa is not necessarily the only metric of nothing-to-worry-about. Similarly, the argument that not having fraternity parties just pushes the alcohol off campus is weird to me. It’s not wrong – but why should a college tacitly endorse 4-nights-a-week binge drinking? Why wouldn’t they attempt to put boundaries on these student groups as they do others? The legal problem is that unlike every other student group, Greeks are often privately held properties, privately run.

Sorry, off topic! OP, best wishes to you and your daughter.
