    The Greek life is very limited. There are no houses and the parties you would expect are not there. Being in a Greek affiliation in this campus is just something to add to your resume.

    Don't think this like the movies, the university is new to the Greek life so it is in its growing stage but they do have a lot of thing for its members.
