I guess it could be comparable to having a full-time job and taking classes. I know it's been done before.

Having a full time job and taking a full course load is bad enough. Then add the time for pledge or fraternity activities and you are talking damn near impossible. And active duty doesn't really correspond to having a full time job if you think about it.

It can, depending on what your job is.

I'm not saying it's easy, but it's obviously been done.

We had a sister who was in the reserves. She had to do stuff one weekend a month and the summer. It didn't interfere with much. We were so proud of her!
