The problem with growing up is that there is always someone telling us we are not old enough. And yet, you would think that as young adults, we would finally be over it.

GWids are the equivalent of students’ social security numbers on campus.
Transfer students do not enroll at GW for the Mount Vernon Campus experience. They come here to take advantage of city life in Foggy Bottom.
As camera flashes flickered over a sea of tassels, two Columbian College of Arts and Science professors urged graduates to cast their fears aside and forge fresh paths to success.
I never understood why people refer to cities as if they were human until I left Sevilla, Spain. My feelings toward leaving my newfound home are so complex, it's as if I am leaving the love of my life.

I’m kind of disappointed that an entire council (the Multicultural Greek Council) was left out of this article. The article makes it sound as if there are only two councils on campus – and that they are the only options. This is obviously not true and is misleading.
Using phrases like “Sorority recruitment starts this Thursday…” implies that ALL sororities on campus have the same process.
*smh*
Why does GW encourage Greek Life when the numbers say that these groups have a much higher rate of binge drinking. ???????
My guess is that they left out the MCGC because you didn’t have recruitment that week. It wasn’t any attack against you. Should they mention Panhel or the IFC every time they talk about the MCGC? That would be kind of obnoxious.
Where did you get these facts about GW binge drinking? Even if that were true, from what I’ve seen, the SA clearly has a much higher rate of binge drinking than the typical GW student. Should the school stop encouraging them as well? Stop being so hypocritical and try reading the article. Greeks do thousands of service hours for the community (both within GW and around DC). They set a great example for GW students.
