I agree. It’s more acceptable now.

The business fraternities and clubs may be a good fit.

Drinking isn't as prevalent among college students as it was for their parents generation. Lots of students don't drink. Weed use is way up though.

Would your son be interested in the military/ROTC? This is not a joke---it's a similar cultures of fraternity/brotherhood.
All frats have drinking, but many have members who don't drink. Mine did back in the day.
Similar to ROTC, he might consider the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M or VTech.
terrible idea if he's trying to avoid drinking

He will be a business major most likely. He is currently an A- student and has taken SAT 1480 but will take again. Will have a total of 8 AP for graduation. We are not looking at Ivy league as looks like these stars will not be enough. Thank you
Service fraternity: Alpha Phi Omega is a coed one , but there are others. Some colleges have academic fraternities too. There are plenty of non-drinkers in both of these cohorts

What about somewhere like Brigham Young with a large Mormon population?

You can 100% be in a frat and not drink. Not ALL frats - there are some douchey ones - but he’ll find one.
Or try a school w residential college housing?
