It depends on the college and the fraternity tbh. I joined a fraternity, but we’re all nerds (we’re all either Biology majors, theater kids, IT guys or all of the above). There ARE other fraternities on our campus that aren’t as chill as us (one group deals coke, another is known to bring minors into their parties, one is infamous for spiking drinks…so on and so forth). Obviously the bigger the college and the bigger the fraternity, the more likely they are gonna fit the stereotypes.
Honestly, yeah. To the point that it's regularly a political problem in the states.
hazings can be pretty severe. there's a few cases where hazings were so bad it ended in death, but those are rare.
They all sound horrible.(the others besides yours) Most of my knowledge of frats are through movies and I thought they were probably wildly exaggerated.
There are a couple others on our campus that are chill as well, but generally the common denominator is that we’re selective with who we offer bids to and we keep our numbers small. The way fraternities are portrayed in media also have a big influence on who joins them bc then you get a lot of incoming freshmen who think “heck yeah if I join a frat it means I get to party all the time and be a jerk”
For a country with such an intense gun culture..you'd think they'd be winning more medals at the Olympics
Are frats really this crazy IRL??? Are they just left unchecked to their own devices??
