sorry, Jewels. I can’t help you much…I do think that the fraternities that are active right at the moment (see pima’s note), are the “traditional” (i.e. non-academic) ones. I’m not sure that any of the fraternities (with frat houses, etc.) on the campus could really (with a straight face) call themselves academic. The First Look Fair coming up will have all kinds of groups represented, including “academic” fraternities and lots of social groups that don’t revolve around drinking. (although drinking is frequently an add-on…let’s be real, this is college.)

But, if anyone’s kids mention that they went to a frat party on a weekend, you can be fairly certain that they aren’t studying there…
