<p>Hey I was wondering if anyone could provide a little insight into BU’s greek life, sorority reputations, etc? Any information would be much appreciated!</p>
<p>BU’s greek life is about 10% of the student population. You can definitely get involved and have a lot of fun, but people not involved in Greek Life (i.e. the other 90%) get along just fine. BU is not the type of school where you have to go Greek to have a life. It’s a large university. </p>
<p>I actually rushed my freshman year and received a bid, but ended up dropping the sorority because it was too many commitments for things that weren’t that important to me, like wearing certain color shoes and memorizing my sorority’s history. I guess it was because I wasn’t too involved yet, but the friendships seemed really forced. It was a lot of judgment over a couple of days, which I guess is true for every Greek system in any school.</p>
<p>The good thing is, BU only allows girls to begin recruitment their second semester of freshman year, so you can see if Greek life is really what you want. </p>
<p>All of the girls seem like they have fun, though. It really depends on the specific individual. </p>
<p>I wouldn’t focus on the reputations. Each sorority is different in it’s own way, as are the girls in them</p>
