<p>OP, I think Suzy was asking MomofWildChild if she had been to both based on her dismissive comments regarding small schools. </p>
<p>Oops! My bad, I can see why you thought that. I was actually asking the OP if he/she had visited. <em>insert embarrassed smiley guy here</em></p>
<p>As for Greek life, I think it matters whether you are male or female for these schools. At Miami, the sororities don’t have houses, so I think you can participate but not have it dominate your life as much as it might at IU. Also, I know there are threads here about how rough the rush process can be at IU for women. If you are male, I’m not sure there is much of a difference. I think I agree with MizzBee when she says: If you just want the fun party scene without the greek life, then IU takes the edge. However, I do know people who went to Miami without joining the Greek scene and had themselves a fine time. :)</p>
