Greek and Love It

From the perspective of a Greek member, it seems as though Greek organizations dominate the social scene. Many on and off campus parties are hosted by Greeks. Greek members are also super involved in other areas of campus so our visibility is pretty widespread. There is no Greek housing, so it isn't as exclusive as it might be at other schools. Also, the administration seems to dislike the Greek organizations and they are making everything more difficult for us. While I believe Greek life is a great way to get more involved and provides a lot of social outlets, non-Greeks say that you can still have a social life and be an independent.

Going Greek? It Shouldn't Be a Burden.

Most people on campus would like to believe for the sake of passing on mere gossip that Greek life commands the social hierarchy of the school. That isn't true. They enjoy themselves without bothering other people and not many untoward incidents are reported. People who do not wish to join fraternities/sororities have a whale of a time too. I've been there and I know it well.

Not a Necessity, but an Option

Greek life is great for people who want to participate in that sort of thing, but if it's not for you, you can still have a social life, and there are many other options to keep you occupied.
