College Prowler Take
The best part about Greek life at VCU is that there are so many different fraternities and sororities to choose from. Also, if you don’t want Greek life to be a part of your social scene, it’s easy to avoid. The students who are involved in Greek life here find it to be a great way to socialize and meet people while gaining tremendous leadership opportunities. They find comfort in a family-type atmosphere and know they always have someone to depend on. Fraternity and sorority members hang out together, take classes together, and throw parties together.
Greeks contribute a lot to the community. By organizing fundraisers and participating in charitable events around the city, such as the Ukrops Monument Avenue 10K, Greeks bring awareness to those in need and help raise money for local organizations. However, right or wrong, no matter what the students in fraternities and sororities do for the community, they will always be seen the way people typically describe them—hard-partying and wild!
