[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once admitted, It is easier for the private school kids to get into frats and sororities at the top schools. 
The most popular frats/sororities/lunch clubs will always have kids from St. Albans, Holton, etc. and they will automatically give preference to kids coming from their HS whether they personally know them or not. The public school kids applying could be great but they don't have the connections and no one is pulling them in. 
Just a fact of life.[/quote]

Eww. Who cares about getting into sororities or fraternities? Those kids will always use daddy’s connections in life anyway. And the general peer group
is stupid.[/quote]

These days being part of fraternity is not what it used to be. some any issues with drinking, hazing and unfortunately deaths. I was part of a sorority and loved every minute but very hesitant to recommend my DS join a fraternity. Look at Penn State and Michigan and all the issues they are having.[/quote]

Me too!  I loved my sorority but being in a frat now is like having a target on your back.  Only worth it if it's the only avenue to develop a close network.[/quote]
