Need the low down on greek system!

<p>The only way that I will go to UW is if I am in a sorority because it is such a big school. My older brother went to UW and said he had a hard time making friends because it is such a big school. I’m outgoing but I think joining a sorority to make friends is a good idea for me. Anyway, I was wondering what people have heard about them. The Greek Row at UW is pretty impressive. What is the Greek system known for? Do they have a good academic record? Are people able to easily make friends without joining a sorority/ frat? How does bidding work? ETC. Any advice/ info will be of great help in my decision to join. I wish you all the best of luck in your application process. GO HUSKIES!</p>
