Cornell University - CU 4.3 33% of Cornell students are in Greek life. They live in mansions, the parties much better than going to bars, and the guys/girls in the upper middle tiers (SDT/Tridelta/PiPhi) and above are pretty attractive on average (well, for cornell) . Wish there were more sororities so there would be more diversity amongst them, but that's just the way it is. Greek life is pretty elitist in nature, but the only way to party. Enjoy it before Pollack shuts it down.

Cornell University - CU 3.5 Greek life is pretty much the center of the party scene here and it's really fun. Greeks are super present during o-week, homecoming, halloween, St. patty's, and obviously Slope Day. Only downside is the social-climbing/competi tive nature, which I feel is actually way worse here than other places because Cornell students just tend to be more insecure overall. That being said, brotherhood/sisterhood is amazing and it's great to have a whole organization standing behind you, and it's fun to get close with other houses. Mixers can be hit or miss but multiways make things way better as they're pretty much the size of an open party, just with way more people you know and cooler people you actually want to party with. Definitely worth joining if you go here.

Cornell University - CU 4.5 1/3 of the school is Greek. Almost every physical house is amazing or at worst on par with what Cornell housing can provide. It's becoming trendy to try to eliminate Greek life, so we may sadly see Greek life coming to an end in the near future. Unfortunate

Cornell University - CU 4.5 33% of Cornell is in Greek Life, and with only a few bars to choose from, it's no surprise that Frats and Srats dominate the social scene. Joining one of these organizations is critical if you like to party, especially during the spring semester when open parties are effectively non-existent. Hazing is still pretty prevalent, as with every club and group on campus, but it's certainly been curbed back since the SAE incident.
