New Top 10 Greek Schools

[Manning]

I would add the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) to the list. Oxford is extremely fratty and Ole Miss is all about greek life.

Agreed...as of this Spring 2006 Ole Miss has 3663 students in Greek organizations (NPC, IFC, NPHC) out of 11,651 undergraduate students. So that would be about 31.4% of undergrads are in Greek orgs. I don't know if that constitutes for a big enough percentage but it sure is a pretty big deal to be Greek at Ole Miss. You could say that 1 out of 3 students at Ole Miss join a Greek organization.

2075 are in 9 NPC groups
1497 are in 15 IFC groups
91 are in 7 NPHC groups

Miami of Ohio, Kansas State?! This list is no good

I completely agree about Ole Miss. However, on a side note, I think that having a large percentage in the greek system isnt necc indicative of a strong system. For example, you have similar schools like Alabama or Auburn who have a lesser number, but the greeks have a large presence. I think a possible quality of a good greek school is when the greeks are quite distinct from the rest of the student body, and also hold a disproportionate amount of campus clout.

That list is a joke. Diversity has nothing to do with a school having a strong greek system. I would say power, presence on campus, how much pull you have with the university, etc. etc. are all strong indicators.

In no particular order:

1.)Alabama
2.)Georgia
3.)Ole Miss
4.)Washington and Lee
5.)Sewanee
6.)Texas
7.)South Carolina
8.)LSU
9.)Auburn
10.)Vanderbilt

Not being biased. Sorry, but the strongest greek schools are in the South, as are the strongest and most competitive chapters.
