Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Since all the Greek houses are very close to campus and all in the same general area, it is hard for most students to ignore Greek life on the weekends. Overall, the amount of students in the Greeks system is small, but there are always parties on the weekends, and Frat Row is where most student enjoy going. The Greek system at UNH is large enough to satisfy those who really want to become involved without shutting out students who choose not to. Not being Greek won’t kill your social life, but pledging can make it a lot easier to meet people and keep up with the party scene.

Although the Greek system may dominate the social scene, there are rarely any problems with authorities, despite a few violations that have suspended a couple of fraternities. Contrary to popular belief, the Greek system at UNH is not just there to party. Many Greek organizations are closely tied to the school system, and they also help the community in a number of service programs. However, many students who join fraternities and sororities say that the Greek system at UNH made their experience twice as good, and the people they met are friends for life.

Greek life members are very stuck up, but if you know members than you will be fine. They are jocky and preppy, pretty and bitchy for the most part. Like I said if you know members, you will be fine.

I'm Not a Greek but I Like Their Parties

I'm not really sure how many people do the Greek thing. I'm not into it, but a bunch of people are. It's not really something that 'everyone' does. I've been to a bunch of frats for parties. Most of them are really fun, but with varying levels of house sketchiness and nastiness. "Frat Row" is where the houses are. People that are in frats and sororities are accepted and everything, but it's just not something everyone does. I just appreciated them for their parties. Also, I think they do a bunch of charity work. I know that UNH doesn't recognize a lot of the existing frats, but that doesn't really change much.
