[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t imagine Greek life would be fun for the majority of students.   At least the Southern ones.  The Greek life there is racist and rigid.  Some sororities don’t allow men in their rooms and no alcohol.   To dance and have a few beers you need to go to fraternities where you can’t always trust what you’re drinking.

We had fun way back with a combination of drinking and partying, going to concerts, hanging out with our friends, activities.   No Greek at my school luckily.  [/quote]

I also think some kids are turned off by the hunger games aspects of rush. [/quote]

My DC attends a large school with only about 20% going Greek.  Neither she nor her friends had any desire to rush, but that’s not to say they aren’t involved in a lot of activities and go to plenty of parties!

Also, some parents seem to think that you’re either a good student OR a partier.  You can certainly be both.  My DC and friends are all Dean’s list students who also like to have fun.  It’s not either/or. [/quote]

My sons thankfully wanted nothing to do with frat culture. Both are athletic. One club, one Varsity. Picked schools in the T10/20 with little to no Greek life. Don’t get me wrong, they have fun—but they don’t have to pay for their friends or do weird sh@t. [/quote]
