I'm not sure why, but none of the schools in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton have Greek Life. Once you get out of that area, and over to like Bucknell, Lycoming, Bloomsburg, Lock Haven, Susquehanna, then the schools have Greek Systems. Once you get south of there, to like ESU, Lehigh, Lafayette, etc., you get Greek Systems again. I don't know what the reason is, but it's always been that way.

I live in the Northeast PA area, and attend Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, which is adament about not supporting greek life because of the reason that I have stated. The institutions surrounding me don't support greek orgs. , such as Kings College, College Miseracordia, The University of Scranton (which is a Jesuit University), Johnson College, Bible Baptist College, Penn State Branch Campuses (which is a state university obviously, but don't have greek systems because only the main campus does), Marywood University, Lackawanna County Community College. Not ALL of these are Catholic based but the majority are, and it seems as though its consistent that they don't support greek orgs. due to many reasons, which I dont agree with.
Thank you for all of your messages, I wasn't sure if it was a universal thing!! I'm glad that its not!! Now all I have to do is TRANSFER
