Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The general consensus is that going Greek is mostly your own personal choice. Greek life is prevalent, but it doesn’t dominate the social scene. Some people never go through rush and are happy with their choice. Others stay with a particular fraternity or sorority throughout their entire college career and are equally happy.

There’s no doubt that pledging is a great way to meet a lot of people and become involved in a lot of activities. However, if fraternities or sororities aren’t your style, then there are plenty of other opportunities to get involved in school. Keep in mind that not all Greek organizations are social. There are several sororities and fraternities that are community related, if that’s more to your taste. No matter what you choose, you should feel comfortable with what you do.

No Sorority Houses

At Auburn there are only fraternity houses and not sorority houses. Each sorority has a hall and a chapter room in the dorm buildings in the village. While sorority dues are not nearly as expensive compared to at other universities, it really is something the girls miss out on the experience of being in a house together.

Nightmare

The Greek/Non-Greek divide is A LOT worse at other schools, don't get me wrong. And Auburn really does try it's best to keep the Frats from hurting people but... the system is what it is. Some pretty intense horror stories come out of the supposedly banned hazing in the Frats. The Sororities don't do anything like that (no hazing going on there) but they do put a lot of societal and mental pressure on the girls. You can pretty easily avoid all of it and I highly recommend that you do frankly.

Greek Life

It dominates the campus. All of them are the same. It makes Auburn really bland and unoriginal. There is more to college than paying to have friends.
