While this doesn't specifically address your question, I think that my experience in a sorority helped my gain my first real internship, which in turn helped my resume and paved the way to graduate school (not to mention the experiences that I encountered while working the internship).

My first internship was with Senator Cardin (then Congressman Cardin). He was a Pi Lam at Pitt and during my interview, we talked a little bit about Greek life, and Pitt in general. Now, I can't guarantee that this was what got me the internship, but I'm guessing it definitely made me stand out.

I definitely agree with what has been earlier stated about the whole Academy being a Fraternity.. but could you imagine a Fraternity treating their new members the way that Plebes are treated? Ha!
