<p>You can definitely join a house if you’re studying engineering. However, I wouldn’t take more than 12 credit hours the semester that you are a pledge.</p>

<p>Check out the Triangle fraternity, which is for Engineers, scientists and architects. My son loves it, and it appears to be more academic than party driven.</p>

<p>I know a lot of engineers who went Greek. You can do it if you want. I would suggest taking easier classes on the semester you will be pledging, however.</p>
