Between dancing in their white jammies, going for swims, and frolicking in a field, it’s like these girls have made the world’s longest, whitest, and most obnoxious feminine hygiene commercial.

I work in student affairs at a Big 10 school, this is pretty much par for the course. There are some bits and pieces of the volunteering, philanthropic “good parts” of greek life; but those aspects are far outshadowed by our huge and alcohol soaked party scene.

I am an Alpha Phi from the 90’s from a huge Midwestern school with a large greek presence. My daughter will not be pledging when she goes to college next year. Honestly, I am afraid that she would not be taken into a house these days. She has a 3.9, is graduating high school with her freshman year of college…

I would have thought The Shining or Jaws would be appropriate as well.

Yeah... I don’t get it either. Isn’t this what Campus Greek culture is about? Seems weird to be going after the video and not the hundreds of sororities that exist to promote this kind of thing.

Here you go:

UA alum, you don’t want to frolic in that “lake.”

I don’t understand why THIS sorority video, of all sorority recruitment videos, was the one to cause so much drama. Is it because of the bouncing? Aside from getting through the trial of my rapist, I think sorority recruitment is maybe the most sexist, awful thing I’ve ever experienced. Definitely the worst thing I…

With this culture of “everyone deserves a college degree,” there are lots of folks who don’t take their studies seriously. There is a strong culture of “party school” in the US. Basically you attend school, waste your parent’s money, rack up hundreds of thousands in debt and come out with a degree that is worthless.…

That helps keep out the riff-raff and undesirables.

I’m an Alpha Phi. I don’t know what bothers me most, the ridiculousness of how this chapter only seems filled with thin beautiful blonds, the overuse of the slo-mo, or the fact that they have a lake nearby to frolic in. (it’s the first one. but I am jealous of the lake.)

They spend an immense amount of money on the “right” clothes, hair, makeup, etc. There is also an astronomical amount of peer pressure to stay very thin. A lot of women engage in negative self-talk about their weight, but it’s on a whole nother level when it comes to some of these sororities. I have a few friends who…

Dues for being in a sorority can (and do) cost thousands of dollars a year.

I don’t see what the big problem is, this looks like an extremely accurate representation of what life is undoubtedly actually like at the University of Alabama’s Alpha Phi chapter: a bunch of rich white girls doing their make-up and playing dress-up. All day long.

You’re under the mistaken belief there’s any work done there. It’s just a staging area to hook-up with a the son of a wealthy family or if that’s not in the cards . . . well that black baller with that multi-million contract will do, but let’s not speak of it.

Greek life bullshit needs to die.

It looks like one big tampon commercial.

Universities should just not support these institutions and should limit their ability to throw parties on school property.

This actually made me cry. I am crying.

To what does she attribute her pre-aneurism abrasiveness?
