In addition to some of the Ivy League Schools, Rice University in Houston has groups that are similar to these Supper Clubs. While there is nothing comparable to recruitment/bickering (students are assigned to one of the "colleges") the rest of their existence is the same. There is housing, meal service, and all university competitions is based upon the college that you are in. Each college has its own colors, symbols, cheer, etc. In addition, the question at Rice is not "What is your major?" Instead it is "What college are you in?"
At present there are no fraternities or sororities at Rice, and there does not seem to be much interest for such. My husband, who is an alumni of Rice, does not understand my sorority experience. I don't understand his "college" experience. However, we both respect that each system worked for each of us and that is enough.
