Spoken like a true grade school dropout.
Besides being an obvious place to expand one's social circle (through rush functions, sorority parties, college events), membership in a fraternity can teach a man how to:
manage a budget (as treasurer)
plan meals (as steward)
speak publicly (as president)
organize events (as social chairman)
maintain a home (as house manager)
become involved in politics (as inter-fraternity rep)
give to others (as charitable services coordinator).
When hiring newly graduated collegiates, with grade point averages being equal, an employer will likely choose a fraternity man over an independent. The fraternity man has shown that he's already capable of responsibilities in the "real world".

No Its about a eternal Brotherhood. During that period of time that you are on line with your fellow pledges it is a bond that forms and after you cross over that bond and brotherhood that is formed lasts a lifetime.
I pledged PHI BETA SIGMA at Marshall university, we never had to pay money to pledge. now I can only talk about the Historically Black fraternities and sororities.
I take it that you may not have been chosen or didn't make it across and that is why you are so bitter and negative about Greek life. Just like a couple of the other losers that answered yes to your question. If you would have crossed over or were chosen for what ever fraternity you pledged this question would have never been posed.
If at first you don't succeed try try another frat again...............
BLUE PHI.

I don't know about all fraternities but the ones that I have seen are more social groups than anything. Many have values and join because they are trying to be part of a legacy. I plan on joining a sorority this fall and I have no use for excess friends. I am joining because the org. that I want to be a part of has deep roots and they do a lot of community service. Also, I want to be part of something that broke barriers in the past.

If they were homosexual, they wouldn't be buying friendship.
If it were friendship they were after, they wouldn't need an excuse.
