Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Whether it is some fraternity’s toga party or a sorority’s semi-formal, joining Greek life at Towson can be a lot of fun. The students who are involved in Greek life claim that it has a highly visible role on campus, and many students involved say they cannot imagine having a good college experience at TU without joining a sorority or a fraternity.

But, joining a sorority or fraternity at Towson can be awfully time consuming, since meetings and events are held almost every week, or at least every other. As a result, many who are involved in Greek life may say that it plays a big role on campus because they are constantly around it. As a student in Towson, you are bound to come across Greeks wearing their letters just about every day, but a good majority of students choose not to join and are content with their decisions. Furthermore, those who are not involved in Greek life do not think it dominates the social scene at all.

The greek life is ok, not many frats but a ton of soroities. All the girls in greek life are the exact sterotype of all soroities. Stuck up girls.

Greek!

I am not too aware of the Greek life, but I know for sure no one is treated differently, regardless of what you are. Everyone at Towson is pretty "cool", it does not matter where you are from or if you pertain to a certain sorority or fraternity.
