I agree that the terms frat and frat boy have negative connotations. I eliminated them from my vocabulary when I was in high school visiting colleges. I asked a guy how long he had been in his frat. He said that he wasn't in a frat, he was in a fraternity. He said, "You wouldn't call your mother a c*nt so don't call my fraternity a frat." That was the last thing he ever said to me. I had never heard anyone use that word directed towards me so I walked away justifiably offended.
