School Spirit
At Albion, it sometimes seems like students are prouder of what fraternity or sorority they belong to than the school itself. Greek apparel is everywhere on campus, which makes sense as about half of the campus goes Greek. Greek Week seems to be what really gets the campus excited—although Homecoming Weekend is also a big deal on campus. Alumni return for both of these, and the campus seems much livelier during these times. No one is ashamed to go to Albion. It is a good school with a good reputation, and that sums it up.
