<p>Yes, don’t fall into that trap that you think you have to join a frat to be social. MIT depends on the fact that a significant number of the male population will join frats, so there’s a pretty hard sell to the freshman.</p>

<p>Yes, but my experience in a frat was that a lot of people there were paranoid about not being “nerds.” And it wasn’t just my frat either. I knew a lot of people from other frats and it was the same thing. Obviously, I don’t recommend it. </p>
<p>The open parties at frats are fun, but you don’t have to be in one to go.</p>
