[quote=Anonymous]I went to a big 10 school with one of the largest Greek systems in the country. I couldn't imagine pledging to a sorority.

Of course I knew people who got a lot out of it but - especially for girls there's a huge element of trading on sexuality. There's a lot of pressure to date guys from the top Frats and the negotiations for which houses will have socials with whom is really something out of the 50s. The girls get set up on lots of dates and imagine some of it is really fun, but for houses that want to move up, there is pressure to hook up with the guys from the Frats that can improve your social rankings.

If you can navigate the negatives there is a lot of fun to be had. There are lots of social events bbqs formals spring break trips. It's also true that the girls help each other out everything from fake Ids to term papers are easily accessible. Many of the girls in a house will have similar majors and take classes together so they can collaborate on HW and projects meaning they don't need to spend as much time studying. My friend's house had a database of past exams for all the accounting classes - that made studying much easier! They also had a shoebox of drivers licenses from the seniors. She joked that was the reason that they were so strict about the type of girl that they could accept - they all had to have the same "look" for the fake Ids. [/quote]
