This is true. I was involved in a TON of community service with mine. It looks great on a resume, especially to a kid coming straight out of college with no real work experience.

People who [censored] on frats have no idea what they are truly about



It's been my experience that the people that talk s*** about them never joined one because they were too worried what their friends might think.

Frats help motivate you to keep your grades up, manage your schedule, get you involved in school spirit, tutor you and the like.




My GPA was higher during the period I was in a fraternity than during the time I was in school and not in one. With the way the house GPA worked, if I slacked off I wasn't just screwing myself, I was screwing everyone else. Also, when you're taking 15+ credit hours, working 2 jobs, studying AND trying to fulfill fraternity duties, you learn damn fast how to schedule your time.
