That's the whole generation though. Our national magazine has gone from having detailed reports of chapter activites (rush, homecoming, philanthropy etc) to a photo with a perfunctory caption. We're organizations based at institutions of higher education. I think the least we could do is express ourselves with something other than pretty pictures.
(This kind of got ranty. Sorry.)

I agree. WAAAY BAAACK in time when the most a "rushee" could expect to see would be a slide show is that someone was narrating the slide. They'd share the information about philanthropy, social events etc..IMO it's rare to find a video that shares why a PNM would want to join that group.
