Arent fraternities/sororities all about alcohol and partying?
Alcohol and substance abuse is not tolerated. Most organizations have mandatory educational sessions on the dangers of alcohol and substance abuse and precautions are taken at all events to ensure a safe environment. The decision of whether or not to consume alcohol is made by any student being in a fraternity or sorority has no bearing on that decision. True, the social aspect of Greek Life is one of the major reasons that students get involved in fraternities and sororities. However there is much more to being in a fraternity/sorority than “partying”. Fraternities and sororities have some of the most active students on campus. Every organization devotes countless hours to community service and raises money for their national philanthropies as well as encourages involvement in a wide variety of campus organizations. They also have frequent organized brotherhood/sisterhood events for their members.
