[quote=Anonymous]OP: Sorry, that was me answering about which schools he liked. Lehigh, Wake, Vandy etc. were some of the schools he thought would be good for him—but then read that Greek life is an important part of the social scene and that is a major turn off.

I did talk to him about how if he applies to a place like UMich, even though it has a fairly large Greek presence, the % of people not involved far outnumber those who are. He said he knows, and what worries him is that he is much more interested in the medium-sized schools like 5,000-15,000 than he is the huge Universities (this is something new he just shared).

I’m happy he is giving this so much though and really trying to narrow down. I also did some checking online and he’s right, the lists are either schools that have no Greek life or the best Greek life. Again, he doesn’t mind some but he doesn’t want it to be a highlight or center point of social life.

He will have an appointment with his counselor when school starts but he was hoping to have a solid list when he met with him. I see now how it is a major turn off for him. Even 30% involvement makes him uncomfortable, he said. He thinks it’s toxic and gross.
