Fraternities In Canada

Hi, I'm going to the University of Toronto in September and want to join a fraternity. The fraternity I've been researching the most is Beta Theta Pi. My question is how what other fraternities are there at UofT and which ones are considered the most well known/popular?

There are quite a few fraternities in U of T, so you shouldn't have a problem finding your fit. No one's going to tell you reputations on here, so you're going to have to to actually talk to the chapters to find what exactly it is you are looking for for yourself. Good luck!

Thanks, I've been trying to find info on some, but it seems info on the web is pretty scarse, specially about the dates of when you can actually go and try to receive a bid

Why not contact the school/office of Greek Life?

In Canada, the universities do not endorse, associate with, or recognise sororities or fraternities. I don't know why. But it's impossible to find any updated information online. Even email addresses I found were outdated.

Some universities DO recognise Greek groups, it's individual by each campus. On my campus, we're recognised but not given any money by the student union.

www.canadiangreeks.com - It's not that hard to find this website if you find any time looking at all. You're going to have to do what the rest of us on campuses with smaller Greek communities do, and actually research chapters yourself. If you've gotten yourself into university, you should at least be able to do that.

Kind of hard to do since I have a penis. If you had looked on that site you would have seen Psi U is a fraternity.

Don't you know looking for information is bad

Especially checking even wikipedia for the information you're looking for.

You know how everyone tells people rushing to watch what they say online because actives at that University could be seeing what they say? Who knew it would hold true for U of T all the way up in the North.

Kid's lucky I find this mildy amusing.

And to be completely fair a lot of the info on that website is pretty out dated. So someone's just trying to save themselves for actually taking this thread two steps backwards.

Also, the "I got Letters" argument is pretty lame. It's not like he's actually gone to a recruitment party and got rejected, therefore denying him letters.

Maybe when you do provide links to a curious Rush, you don't provide him with something useless. Maybe you should do the research, instead of blaming him for everything.

Granted, maybe he was too 'immature' about it, but that's fine. Some of you think your letters give you self-entitlement, and permission to be jerks in a conversation like this. What stopped you from saying, "Oh I'm sorry I gave you useless information, let me help you try elsewhere"? Maybe it was your letters.

Funny how you did not provide any information either.

If he bothered to search either the site provided, or wikipedia he'd find a list of links. He could then check these links against the GLO websites to find out if the chapters are still present.

But that would be work. He'd rather bitch.

People here who flash their letters out of line get called on it. People who flash them because they know shit you don't know, don't.

Assholes get treated like it.
