<p>There are numerous benefits to joining a fraternity. It is really dependant upon the house you join. A lot of them are predominantly concerned with alcohol and sex, and this is generally quite visible at rush. There are those who are quite concerned with academics, comraderie, fun, and brotherhood, and they are typically smaller. Keep in mind there are non-traditional fraternities without houses, and these tend to be a little bit lower in extremity as well. There are also non-traditional service fraternities that provide unique brotherhood experiences without any wild side.</p>
