Have you heard of the frat on campus?

Cabrini’s Greek life is more like a club than an actual fraternity.

I mean no disrespect to the individuals who decided to join the fraternity either.

In my eyes, it is not really considered a fraternity if there is only one fraternity at a school with roughly 1,500 undergraduates.

Again, nothing is wrong with joining the fraternity. However, if you do decide to join the fraternity, do not expect it to be the next college that ImShmacked will make a video of.

Go to Kingswood if you want to dabble in those activities.

When I think of a fraternity, I think of tons of people making tons of bad decisions.

I cannot really imagine any of that happening here. Okay, yes I can, but not at the fraternity.

Although, you never know.

The fraternity might come out of nowhere next year and be the new place to go.

That could very well happen, too. Other houses get caught too many times by the cops and then stop throwing parties.

I do not really know many things about the fraternity here. I actually did not find out that there was a fraternity here at all until last year when I started noticing all of the members wearing their sweatshirts with the fraternity logo on it.

 I know some of the guys and they are really nice so if you are in-the-middle about joining or not,       joining would not be a decision you will later on regret.

There is nothing wrong with the fraternity not throwing huge parties either.

If I were in it, I would never want to worry about throwing a rager and then having the responsibility to clean up all the mysterious and grimy things that you find along the way.

I am always down to just settle down and have fun with a few people.

Tons of people are afraid to make choices that force them to temporarily leave their comfort zones.

I was never interested in joining, but I knew people that had talked about maybe joining. I do not think anyone has or ever will regret taking the leap of faith and joining the fraternity.

So if you are trying to decide to join or not, stick with your gut and join the fraternity.
