[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi! I'm looking for recommendations for schools [b]where Greek life isn't too important. [/b] It's ok if they have some Greek, but I'm not looking for a school (to recommend to my kid) where most of the social life is Greek. He prefers large universities (20,000 +) so that most majors are offered, and lots of activities/clubs so that there's "something for everyone." He also likes the idea of a decent Division 1 football and/or basketball team so that going to the games is a fun social event. We already know WVU fits the bill on this one, but can anyone recommend others? We're open to looking at any part of the country. Thank you. [/quote] [b]I don't even know what that means. Greek like is a choice. If you want to do one, you can do one. If you don't want to be in one, no one will force you. Any Unis will fit that definition or no Unis will fit that definition. [/quote][/b] Agreed, my oldest went to a school with a massive Greek system and set foot in a house 4 times because their favorite holiday was Halloween and this particular house through a great party. Managed to have a great social life in the plethora of academic and outdoor clubs and "establishments" in town. Now in grad school untarnished by the evil Greek stain I guess all of the big Greek fear mongers panic about, it's really quite odd. [b]A well adjusted social kid should have no issue at a large University, there is always something for everyone[/b].[/quote] I'm sure OP's kid will do great at any number of places. That doesn't change the question.[/quote] OK, so OP what is your threshold for Greek life, WVU is roughly 12%....is 12% your threshold? That would help drive the suggestions.[/quote]
