Every school says that. People not involved in Greek life will always say it's a bad idea to rush, because it's not what they'd suggest for themselves so why would they suggest it to anyone else? Even the GDIs at schools like UT or Alabama say not to go greek. A&M greek life actually is huge. It's just that our school is super huge (~60,000 people) so it looks smaller in comparison to the sheer size of our student body. Sororities have events just about every week and there's a frat party just about every other week. Then there's mixers and date parties and crush parties and semi formals and formals and victory dinners and house parties and pre-games and bar tabs and bid days and tailgates...the list goes on and on. It might not be the popular "Aggie" thing to say but the social life of someone involved in Greek life here is infinitely better than that of someone who's not. As far as huge events. Chilifest is like 20,000 people. Every sorority event I've been to has been absolutely packed. Most upper tier frat parties are anywhere from 300-800 people. I've been to SAE and SigEp parties in the thousands and others that have come pretty close. Coming from someone who's visited a lot of schools, A&M might not have the same strength greek system as some of the SEC schools or the ones particularly known for being greek party schools, but it's better than 90% of the nation
