@srk2017 Yes, 43% Greek (for women, btw, it’s over 50% Greek; for men is ca. 35% Greek) constitutes a significant presence on a college campus. Yes, you don’t have to interact with frats, but they still pervade the overall culture and contribute to the lack of integration that we (and others) had perceived. Glad your son didn’t perceive it or find it off-putting. Glad my D had other choices. Vandy’s a good school. It’s just not for everyone.
@Rivet2000 - FroSoCo does look like a great community, but a bit too far from the main parts of campus where’s D’s classes will be. She’s happy with the SLE programming as it’s exactly what she was looking for (i.e., a Great Books-type exploration into Western and non-Western culture.) Glad to hear that your son loves FroSoCo. Is he a freshman?
