[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You people do realize that binge drinking and date rapes occur in people who aren't in greek life correct?

I was in a sorority for 2 years.  It was very casual at my school because no one was allowed to live in their houses.  It was basically a way to make friends your freshman year (although I'm only still friends with one girl from my sorority) and to have places to go/things to do.

I got out my junior year because I became involved in a lot more activities and didn't have time to keep up with all of them.  My best friends were either not in my sorority, or they were but they were also involved in another activity of mine.  It just wasn't worth it to keep membership up.

I feel like some people like to hate on Greek life for the stereotype of it.  It varies from school to school.  Down south, yes they take it more seriously.  But you go to a school like mine where the Greeks don't live in their houses and it is a pretty laid back environment and far from exclusionary.  [/quote]

So anyone who wanted to could join?  Everyone who rushed was invited to join?[/quote]

There are some fraternities/sororities/social groups like that.  In other cases, there are space constraints.  At my school there was generally enough space for everyone across all of the houses.  The bid matching system did seem a little complicated, but it generally worked out.  [/quote]
