<p>Hey everyone. So I was just curious about the social scene up at the UW. Is joining a fraternity the way to go? Or can you find ways to immerse yourself into various parties and people without joining? My main concern about joining a frat is that I don't drink/smoke. In terms of parties, is it pretty dismal if you're not in a frat as well? Anyone that has prior experience or has any insight please leave your thoughts! I'm an out of stater so I'm pretty unfamiliar with the social scene here at UW. Thanks!</p>
