And he moved up through the degrees pretty quickly, because they wanted to get him into a leadership role. He also eventually became a Shriner. So, I would imagine if someone joined at an even younger age, the opportunities for leadership, networking, community involvement, etc would be a lot more plentiful than what someone would gain by joining a college-based fraternity.
