<p>It’s interesting that you would say that. Around Middletown, the trope is that the only reason Wesleyan is the one of the last small New England colleges with any all-male fraternities is that it is trying to be more like Dartmouth. They even speak of frat brothers in similarly disparaging terms. For example:</p>
<p>1) That they bring the college unwanted and unflattering publicity
2) That they are tolerated only because of a misguided notion of “diversity” gone amok.
3) That they flaunt their dislike of polite conventions<br>
3) That they probably aren’t very smart
4) .That they take up seats belonging to the more deserving
and,
5) No one will miss them because their numbers are so appallingly small. </p>
