Fraternities

You shouldn't ask that here, you should ask around your campus. Unless everybody here goes to your school.
 
Depends which type of fraternity you join. Joining a service or business fraternity can be very helpful.

Greek individuals comprise only 2% of the population of the United States. However, this 2% is a very powerful group of individuals.

* Over 85% of the student leaders on some 730 campuses are involved in the Greek community.
* All but eight U.S. Presidents have been fraternity men since 1825 when the first social fraternity was founded. Today, 76% of all U.S. Congressmen and Senators are Greek.
* Of the nations 50 largest corporations, 43 are led by fraternity men and sorority women.
* Greeks raise over $7 million for charity every year.
* A U.S. Government study shows that over 70% of all those who join a fraternity/ sorority graduate, while under 50% of all non-fraternity/sorority persons graduate.
* Students who join Greek organizations are more likely to return to school the following year.
* 850,000 hours are annually volunteered by Greeks across the country.
* Approximately 85% of the top executives of Fortune 500 companies belong to a fraternity or sorority.


Amongst greeks are Allen Greenspan, Forbes, Gates and many others.

Investigate what you can about the fraternities pleding process, and don't get scared about asking questions. What, How Long, and How intensive are questions that you should ask. Normally youll get the standard shrug off response, but based on their demenaor you'll learn what to expect.
 
Joining a Fraternity can make or break your college experience. Most guys try to join the fraternity that they think are the coolest and most popular guys on campus, this is the wrong way to do it. Rush all of the houses, and pick the one with the guys you get along with, and have the most in common with. If you join a good house, college will be the best time of your life, but if you join a house because of its popularity, and not by interests and views, then it could be your worst.

Being in a fraternity was the best thing I ever did in college. Some people will tell you that they don't pay for friends, but the money isn't paying for friends, its paying for the parties you will throw with the new friends. IMHO, everyone should rush, and decide during or after rush that it is or isn't for you. You never know what kind of guys/girls for sororities, you will meet.

The fraternity brothers are and always will be the closest friends I ever have. I am closer to them, than the kids I grew up with. You go through way too much together not to be.

Clinton and Senior Bush were members of Alpha Phi Omega.
 
Personally I think it depends on whether your living in a dorm, or off campus. If your living in a dorm, dont bother with joining a frat, your going to meet tons of people and make friends and go to parties there. if you live off-campus/with parents, joining a frat is a good option. Of course living in dorms isn't a guarrenttee, you still have to get out of your room.
