<p>The frat parties here are not as rowdy as one would think. I know; I live on Frat Row. Things used to be much worse a few years ago, but I believe things have calmed down a bit. Of course, they do have their Saturday night parties during the school year - but absolutely nothing has happened over this summer, even with frat boys still living here. </p>
<p>Furthermore, most of the students I know have never attended a frat party. That may be because they are mainly Classics majors, though, but they do run the gamut. The students I know are more involved in academics and clubs than in drinking. </p>
<p>And yes, I might be a little overzealous, but I find that understandable. I have lived on the U. of C. campus the majority of my life, so I love the school and Hyde Park. How can I not have pride? :D</p>
