Millsaps College
- Greek Life

Half and Half

The Greek population at Millsaps College makes up about fifty percent of the students. There are four sororities and five fraternities. The reason that so much of our student population is greek is because the process of rush is simply not as intense as it is at other schools. Plenty of greeks and non greek students are friends and go to the parties. The fraternities generally have parties every weekend, while the sororities have two to three parties a year. Swaps are parties held between the sororities and fraternities and are exclusive to members of the two houses having the swap. The guys can live in the fraternity houses but the girls cannot live in the sorority houses. Overall at Millsaps, the consensus about Greek life is to try first get involved and "go greek" and then to find your perfect fit, and the best thing is that at Millsaps, everyone has a perfect fit.

It's a mixed bag

The top houses on campus could be top houses at many other schools throughout the country, number, involvement and overall chapter quality-wise, however the bottom house(s) can be awful. Another thing that takes away from the Greek scene is that there is a certain house on campus that spreads rumors amongst the female population of the school about the other chapters on campus, these folks are also inconsequently seen as the bottom feeders of the Greek scene (you know who you are), and if you essentially removed them from the row it'd be hard to argue that we'd better as a whole (although it'd spread their weirdo's amongst the rest of the population which sucks)

There is no better feeling than...

There is no better feeling than being in a frat on Saturday night, because everybody’s trying to get in to be a part of the only party on campus. We’re always inclusive. No frats lock you out because of your association. But there is some friendly grief. Alcohol is always available, and sometimes a frat will set up an open bar for guests. The drinks are of mixed quality, with the Chops (the Lambda Chi Alpha frat) always having the best setup and amateur bartenders.
