We also didn't live there so no tush wiping either. Sorry to disappoint. Loved every minute there and on the beautiful campus.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12798153551492377107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7888653511412884793.post-10630232954676428402009-05-19T11:32:00.000-04:002009-05-19T11:32:00.000-04:00gorgeous houses here... makes me miss norfolk va (...gorgeous houses here... makes me miss norfolk va (where I lived for 11years) all the more.

Many houses date back to the early parts of the century. <br /><br />Sororities can not host or have alcohol on premise (their nationals regulate this) so in general, sororities due match up to your hollywood expectations. Sororities also have a cleaning staff which helps perserve the beauty of their inners. Fraternities rely on their pledges, and as you know, most 18-19 year old boys are ill equipped to clean up after 50-100 active members (depending on the size of the chapter).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7888653511412884793.post-42150132301716013172009-05-16T23:18:00.000-04:002009-05-16T23:18:00.000-04:00Interesting note there Upstart - since I wasn't a ...Interesting note there Upstart - since I wasn't a sorority sister in general, I didn't know that the innerds of these beautiful houses wouldn't match the outsides...I guess I may have been influenced by Hollywood...blame it on too much Legally Blonde!
