OH! I was wrong! I looked it up, and USNews.com says it's 1%!

(never mind)

George Mason: 5% in Fraternities, 5% in sororities, 23% live on campus. Sounds about right...

I was hoping my school was on there too.

Just type the name of your school in the "EZ Finder" box on the right side of the page to get its stats and profile...

I'd like to think I'm fairly knowledgeable about locations of colleges, but I HAVE NEVER even HEARD of those top 2 schools.

KSU stats are about right. They have 1% of women in sororities. There are probably 300ish women in all 6 NPC, the 3 NPHCs and 1 local combined. This is out of approx. 28,000.

the stats for JU seem to be correct, 20% in fraternities and 15% in sororities
not bad for a school with less than 3000 enrolled, but it could be better.

I wouldn't trust the stats, since roughly 90% of all statistics are made up anyhow.

Thanks.:) I wasn't sure, so I put 90%.

Just for the sake of more statistics, lets take the numbers from the largest school in the US...

At the start of Fall Quarter, 2007, Ohio State had 2133 members in the Greek System with 52,568 undergradute, grad and professional students on the Columbus campus. Undergraduate totals at Columbus are 39,209.

4% of the total student body and 5.4% of all undergraduates are Greek.

Hahah YES! My dad says that thing about making up statistics all the time! I'm totally starting to say his corny jokes though. Oh man!

*Cringes* at the mention of eating houses. :eek:

Some of the info on that list is a little incorrect. When I looked up information for Ohio University, it lists it's setting as urban. Um, it's in the middle of Appalachia in a small town (the university doubles the size of the town when school is in session) 75 miles from the nearest real mall/airport/bus terminal. I don't consider that urban!

So if they can mess up on that, what else is incorrect?

It's their religion. They like archaic, and think you're going to hell. :rolleyes:
