Role of Greek life

<p>Is Greek life overbearing at Tulane? I'm not interested in going Greek, so I'm worried about a "Go Greek or Go Home" atmosphere. Greek life in general doesn't bother me, but it is important to me that the relationship between Greeks and Non-Greeks is a good one. Any help is appreciated!</p>

<p>This has been discussed several times on here already. You can search the Tulane thread for Greek and should find it easily. Bottom line is Greek life is definitely not dominant at Tulane, and absolutely not “Go Greek or Go Home”. It’s not trivial either, but it definitely is not the main influence on social life, campus politics, or any other aspect that I know of. Virtually all people that decide to join a frat or sorority at Tulane say they have many non-Greek close friends. I think this is one concern you can definitely put to rest.</p>

<p>No not overbearing at all. New Orleans is too amazing for anything other than its own culture to overshadow campus. </p>

<p>Tho, it has become more and more prevalent. Tulane’s undergrad population is getting bigger and, especially regarding sororities, the greek life has reflected this.</p>

<p>That’s true. A few years ago the % of students going Greek was about 28%, now I think it is about 35%. Something like that. But as you say smchls, it’s not “in your face” at all.</p>
