This is such a tired trope. Fraternity/sorority dues don't "pay for friends." If that were the case, you wouldn't have to rush and hope for a bid, which many don't get -- [i]including you, probably, which is why you're still making caustic comments about Greek life decades later.

Greek organizations have expenses: a house, social events, travel, and so on. Splitting these costs among so many people necessitates some kind of formal structure to ensure everyone pays their fair share. A group of 3-4 friends who share an apartment and go out on weekends and take spring break trips together can split the costs informally on their own, but that isn't possible with 80 or 100 people.[/quote]

Hilarious take. The vast majority of people have zero interest in fraternities and sororities. They were cringey in 1998 when I was in college, and they are cringey now. I am trying to raise children with the social skills to make friends and connections without paying for an embarrassing crutch. You do you, though. [/quote]
