Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There's not an overwhelming Greek population. Frat parties do make up a significant percentage of the party scene, but students don’t have to be Greek to go. For the most part, the fraternities and sororities co-exist with everyone else on campus, although some students report that the Greek students rarely venture out of the system.

While most students don’t mind the Greek life on campus, some believe that rush week can get a little annoying with the new pledges chanting all day long, the sorority girls singing, and everyone running around in togas and scrubs. However, rather than get annoyed with them, most students prefer to just laugh. Because really, when you see a big group of hot guys walking down the street and they’re all wearing lipstick, what else can you do?

Greek life is not huge at Davis, however it is definitely a great option. Since Davis is not a big city, greek life provides many activities. You will never be bored on a weekend night.
