The Kris Scorecard:

Points for being a genuine Patriot, Kiowa Driver, getting tabbed, marrying a hot babe, hanging with Willie, Waylon, and Johnny.

Demerits for hanging with Barbra Streisand.

Your scorecard is incomplete. He also hung out with you....

leading me to an entirely different conclusion. Kris lacks all social filters and is open enough to hang with any fellow human....even you.
lol
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

Hmmmmm......

The Greek culture wasn't very big at Marquette during my time there. I heard that has changed.

It has not.  My daughter says very few join.  600 students in total according to Office of Student Life, that is less than 10%

But that is three to four times what it was when I was a student in the early '80's.  And at least on the sorority side, there are way more girls rushing than there are spots for them.  And several new Greek Houses have been built around campus in the past few years.  Cedar Square, the big landlord in the Marquette area, built them in exchange for long-term leases with the fraternities and sororities.

But yeah,  it's not like it's Greek like an SEC school or anything.
Have some patience, FFS.

In the late 80s, the only people that joined frats or sororities were those who had trouble making friends the normal way.  They did throw good parties during rush week though.
