Luckysmiles,
Going Greek is not about "being cool" or carrying on cliques from high school. Greek Life is about so many thing: friendship, sisterhood/brotherhood, scholarship, philanthropy, and a home away from home. Joining as a freshman has it's advantages because you get to jump right into college and Greek Life at once. If you'd like to take some time adjusting before you make the decision to go Greek, look into the organizations on your campus and see how competive your Recruitment process is (some schools give first priotity to freshman). While many of us party and have a good time, this is not all the Greek Life offers. If you have any more questions, there are a lot of helpers on this board who can assist you! Good Luck at school!
