<p>What kind of advantages can joining a frat give you?
Is socializing possible even if you don’t join a frat?
Does MIT accomodate academic discussions purely for fun?</p>
<p>I’m definitely not interested in drinking and partying (unless your concept of partying is watching a movie with some friends). My concept of socializing can verge somewhat on the nerdy side (for example, trying to create an idealistic physics model of metallic materials… plasmas, etc… and sharing it with others, asking their critics). Does that concept of socializing is accomodated at MIT?</p>
<p>I mean, I’m not an all study person, but I have sometimes burst of nerdiness and would be really happy around if other people shared my enthusiasm for physical theories… That’s one of the reasons why I applied to MIT</p>
