What are the social benefits that stem from membership of a fraternity?
IFC fraternities provide a plethora of opportunities to develop socialization at Texas A&M. Most IFC fraternities are actively involved in social events, philanthropies, intramural sports, and scholarly seminars, which all provide each member with an experience to become acquainted with new students who share similar interests. As well as the planned events, the networking capabilities gained from joining a fraternity are far beyond most organizations on campus. After developing solid relationships with senior students, first and second year students learn to utilize those more knowledgeable students as mentors to provide guidance and advice. Finally, a fraternity can provide a stable group of students with similar interests, which is especially helpful during the earlier semesters of a students college career.
