Frats and Sororities........

People not in frats/sororities generally view those in such organizations as not very serious about college. True, there are some that legitimately aim to connect you with a job after graduation, or do better in school, but the majority of them just use your dues to host parties. I am short enough on money (nothing but top ramen and milk for 3 weeks! Ugh!); I don't need to throw it away at them.

Doesn't Matter

It doesn't matter if you're in a sorority or not, in fact guys respect you and are glad to hear that you're not! Even guys in frats tend to view sorority girls as neither superior nor inferior to non-greek members. Girls don't care that much if a guy is in the Greek system, but knowing guys in frats is useful for getting into parties. However, you do not need to be a member of the greek system to go to parties, however in general (regardless of whether you are in the greek system or not) it is easier for girls to get into parties than guys. Overall, the Greek system is great because it remains separate from school and is not discriminating towards non-greek members. Frat guys do throw great parties on weekends!

Greek Life

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.
