Something that I find puzzling is the number of schools where the PR and other guides say the social life is totally dominated by the Greek scene, you are a hopeless reject if you aren’t Greek, etc…and then it turns out that fewer than 40% of students go Greek. You mean the MAJORITY of students have no social life? I don’t buy it.

<p>Even if less than half of students are part of a Greek organization, it might be the case that the social life of independents tends to revolve around fraternity parties and events. But being admitted to these events might depend on knowing people in the Greek system. Thus, people who not only are independent but also lack contacts in the Greek system might be left out.</p>
