For those who never had a house, it is the focal point of any Greek Organization! Well escpically if it is close to campus! A place to go to kick back and relax between classes, get a little study time in.
To be selfish enough to not want to do it, then, Why Join?!
I think valkeryie just said it all! A little to late but ment from the Heart!
Interaction is a big key here, you are at the top of what is happening, not being in your own little world saying I am a XYZ! Wearing a Badge, being somewhat involved. In the House, You are Involved, and you would gain more from that than being a person inan apartment not knowing what is talked about in BSing or chitchat situations!
Excuses are like butt holes and relatives, eveyone has one.
