[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think OP is a troll - I have a kid that has ADHD and some social issues and I agree he would be great in a fraternity if he could get in and [b]if they weren't going to haze him to death.

Fraternities are great for social immersion in college because there is always something to do, many have regular meetings, parties, do some social service, encourage their members to keep up their grades and also just always have something going on.

It's not the same as a club that meets once a week for an hour and has one end of year pizza party - it's just not.

That said, my other DS is in a business fraternity at his school and that is the best of both worlds - close knit group and stuff to do without being all about the parties.

OP- you need to look at schools were the greek life is low key, maybe don't have houses to live in and the people are nice. Do not do anything in the south where the sorority thing is hyper competitive and extremely highly social.[/quote]

Unfortunately that is a legit concern (being hazed to death.)   It happens every year.   It happens to both men and women.   It happens at all types of schools and all races.   It even happens in other clubs/organizations that aren't Greek--for example several years ago the Florida A&M marching band.[/quote]
