First of all, you join an eating club during the spring of sophomore year (though you don’t eat there full time until junior year)

About 75% of upperclassmen join an eating club, so it is definitely a bigger part of student life than frats and sororities. I would say that if you are in a frat/sorority, it may be a big deal for you, but for other people, you really don’t notice them that much. I would say that about 10% of the students join a frat/sorority. The biggest benefit of joining one is making the connections that will get you into a selective eating club, and many do it for this reason. Frats and sororities are not recognized by the university, and they definitely don’t dominate the social life on campus.
