I always found the Greek system mildly befuddling.
A couple of my friends found their way into fraternities and I honestly couldn't see what the appeal or big deal was. But to people in the frats it seemed like the entire world was wrapped up in it.
Supposedly you get some kind of life-long connection or social network or whatever. But I've never really had a problem making friends or meeting people when I want to.
I dunno, I've never been much of a joiner, so joining any kind of club or activity, especially one with some kind barrier to entry always seemed kind of meh to me.
Maybe you can provide some color as to what exactly they're good for and why universities offer them so much special treatment?
