And I said "most fun partS." There are of course, other fun things too - but as I said, a mixer isn't just a time to hook up. It's also to have fun hanging out with your sisters and other Greeks. It's just sort of sad that people get into a fraternity or a sorority partly for the purpose of widening their social horizons, and then refuse to partake of the social events.
Find me a social event that doesn't involve loud music, dancing and alcohol. I broadened my social horizons fine without them.

I just object to the idea that if you're not going to the mixers you're ignoring the fun part(s) and the rest is a wash. My chapter had a similar dropoff as engineers, teachers, nurses and pre-med students all started doing much harder work/clinicals/student teaching/etc. Once 40 hours of your week minimum is gone to school stuff, Wednesday night doesn't sound like such a fun time to go out and party. Semi-/formals were all on weekends so those were nearly universally attended.
