Greek Life?

Also, if you are getting most of your information from cultural depictions of university life, you may be overestimating or exaggerating how much Greek life dominates university life, especially in the South. I went to a small Southern college where Greek life was really important to the people who went Greek but by no means dominated the social scene. I also know of people who perceived that Greek life dominated Southern university life because they had a difficult time making friends or breaking into the scene. I also have friends who went to universities that were stereotypically “dominated” by Greek life and said that wasn’t their experience at all.

Also, often fraternities and sororities might play a huge role in on-campus social life, because they are the only ones with social spaces on or near campus. But non-affiliated students may find or make most of their fun off-campus or in smaller venues.
