<p>I feel like I'll be the only one that won't be going greek next year. I like to party and everything but it just doesn't seem like it's for me. I may join a business fraternity possibly though, which are a lot different from social frats I heard.</p>
<p>Is anyone else not joining a fraternity or sorority next year?</p>
<p>80% of students at USC are not greek.</p>
<p>I think I was reading the other day that 20% of guys are greek and 25% of girls are greek.</p>
<p>Trust me. Most people you meet will not end up being Greek. I wouldn’t completely rule it out though. It can’t hurt to go in with an open mind and think about joining. It can open up a lot of great opportunities. (This coming from someone who isn’t Greek)</p>
<p>I can assure you my son will NOT be going greek (he’ll be a Freshman). He doesn’t go for that scene at all.</p>
<p>I doubt my son will even consider it - he’s a music major and will be in marching band as well, living in the music dorm (hopefully) and when he’s not in class he will be practicing his instrument. I don’t see how he would ever have time to be a frat rat, definitely not as a freshman at least.</p>
<p>^There are music fraternities and sororities. I have a couple of friends who have joined them this semester. So although your son will probably not consider the traditional fraternities, he may later choose to join a music fraternity (or sorority) second semester.</p>
<p>If the main Greek organizations aren’t your thing, there are other Greek organizations on campus. You’ve got Honor fraternities, Social fraternities, and service fraternities. Lots of options.</p>
<p>And if you don’t like any of those, it’s really not a big deal.</p>
