what are the current reputations / ranking / personalities of the fraternities at University of Michigan? some great posts from a few years ago but what do the frats look like now?
What kind of rankings are you looking for? Like which fraternities/sororities are the most “exclusive” or known for having the most attractive members? Or which “tier” each house falls under? Those kind of rankings are pretty harmful and perpetuate some of the worst characteristics of fraternity and sorority life at Michigan (harming women, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and people of color). Therefore, it will not be entertained on this forum, as I do not want CC to have a hand in supporting or legitimizing such harmful practices.
Other kinds of rankings (even like “most fun parties”) are fair game for discussion, however.
There are so many opportunities for socialization at UM frats and sororities are becoming irrelevant. You are going to one of the best educational institutions in the country and world at UM, why ruin it.

I wouldn’t say the Greek system ruins your education, life or your time there. I have a kid in the Greek system at UMich. No hazing, no nonsense, just volunteer work, meetings, classes about sobriety and sexual harassment and a party schedule.
I just learned about a scholarship that my sorority gives to one member at Michigan. 100% for grad school. Can be used anywhere, but had to be a member at Michigan. Kind of a nice farewell present to one member!
