Fraternities & Sororities
If you are about to enroll in a university, then you might want to consider rushing a fraternity or sorority. Greek life might have a bad reputation for hazing initiations and excessive partying, but these organization also do a lot of good for the community and can provide a spirit of brotherhood and sisterhood that is important for young adults who are just beginning their college experience. Many are national organizations with a long legacy of charity work in their communities. Some give academic help to other students who are struggling and others provide services at nursing homes and environmental protection programs. Before you are accepted into a fraternity or sorority, you will have to pledge. This is often true of religious, academic, and social national Greek life organizations. During the rush period, you might be required to wear a specific sweatshirt or sweater that designates you as someone pledging at the fraternity or sorority. Before you decide which organization to rush, however, you should ask the president a few questions to help you decide which one is right for you. If you are interested in living in a frat house, then you should ask them if they have a house that is on campus or near campus. You should also ask them what types of academic, sports, and social opportunities they can offer you. Fraternities and sororities cost considerable money to join, so you should ask them about their rates to help you determine if you can afford it.

Colleges and universities will often sanction the participation of their students in fraternal organizations such as sororities and fraternities in order to provide them with a sense of community and promote charitable and community service. Fraternities and sororities will often organize social events for their members and may provide campus housing and other privileges. Fraternities are generally male only, while sororities are usually made up of female members. Fraternities and sororities will often take their names from various Greek letters, and may participate in the "Greek" system, or formal organization of fraternities and sororities. Fraternities and sororities will often require their members to undergo an initiation ritual in order to become members.
