It took me a year to truly appreciate Vanderbilt.  (Although this is mostly due to the fact that I was in the wrong major).  The sterotypical Vandy students are certainly present but I would not say they are predominant and every year I have been here the % has decreased.  Also the sterotypes about the greek system are misleading.  While it does have a large presence it is most definitely not necessary for a rich social life.  I am in a sorority but my closet friends are not and are very welcome at my soro.  events.  One problem I have with Vandy is that it is force-feeding “diversity”.  I do think diversity is important but the way they are approaching it.  Its like mandatory fun or mandatory volunteering...
