<p>I'm looking at umass and I was wondering what the frat/sorority scene is like. Do they tend to be like sororities in the movies or are they more diverse? How much of the party life is made up by greek parties?</p>
<p>Only a tiny percentage of people join frats and sororities (I think its like 5% or something). They throw parties, but just as many people party at their friends’ off-campus apartments, in my opinion.</p>
<p>As for diversity, I know there are a few multicultural sororities.</p>
<p>a lot of the parties sororities have are wiht other greek organizations, only some of them throw what you’d normally think of as a party. there are lots of multicultural sororities, greek life at umass is relatively small, and it’s only a few places that throw the big parties that are mostly attended by freshman. a lot of people will go to apartments, houses, or some party in the dorms if they can/want to</p>
