[QUOTE=AKA_Monet;1515515]Most American fraternities and sororities are Greek lettered and associated with a college or university, with the exception of the Shriners, Masons, DAR's, etc--even there are fraternities in military service. [\QUOTE]
By and large, to avoid confusion, when people speaking of 'fraternities', they are speaking of college fraternities.
While groups like the Masons, Shriners, etc are also fraternities, one usually calls them "Fraternal Organizations", along with such groups as Elks, Lions, etc. (I don't know if the DAR is a fraternal group).
Don't know about any fraternities in military service.
