Fraternities and Sororities are one big pyramid scheme.

I miss my Friday shrimp poboy at the KD house.



My man, it’s amazing how the same Cisco products were significantly better from my frat house to the sorority meals

Yeah if you think about it they get 3 meals a day and if you do the math they are in between $3.50 and $4.50 a meal probably. Not a bad deal when someone is cooking for you.

It was 9 meals a week. By your junior year, you get pretty damn sick of the meals and it’s amazing that I didn’t get fatter than i did. I got really fat too

I know at the tridelt house it was 3 a day but of course breakfast was just bagels and cereal. I think they didn't have Friday dinner.

That seems right, anyway it’s expensive but really isn’t a bad deal if the kid will eat most of their meals at the house.

Those dues go to pay the electric bill and the house director primarily and to put on the 2-3 events they do off campus each semester. Also the houses tend to be pretty nice inside as opposed to the glorified slums that are Fraternity Houses.


Also the food is a lot better in the Sorority Houses than the on campus cafeteria and also as a cost per diem cheaper than living off campus

That's no shite. One of my fraternity brothers introduced me to my wife and wives are terribly expensive plus I got 2 kids. Even more $$$$. I guess that can be offset somewhat by another brother that helped me get my current job.

I credit my lifelong robust health to living in Fraternity squalor. My immune system shrugs off everything now.

Also, sorority dues are way less than fraternity dues because fraternities have way more social events.

Sorority dues only (not room or board) are around $800 per semester.

Fraternity dues can be several thousand. However, all of these dues have a return value in the form of social events (and room/board if we are including that portion)

Same here, there is no amount of filth that I cannot handle, take a dump in or pass out in after a hard night of drinking even after almost 30 years

according to the '16/'17 guide the highest dues, not associated with room or board, was Kappa Kappa Gamma at $500 per semester

It was really nice to find out that all the walls had enough asbestos to kill Superman. Especially since jackasses would kick holes in them regularly

GDI's spend upwards to that much on their extra curricular but don't get a formal to celebrate that fact....there you go.
