From a scientific stand point, the mentality of frat is extraordinarily close to that of a street gang as they both have various symbols and signs that you find engraved into bathroom walls and desks. They believe that strength comes in numbers and the individual is powerless by themselves. If understood by its definition, then a fraternity is a group of individuals who’s self esteem comes only from the amount of friends they can initiate into their frat. There is the social experiment of placing a member of a prestigious fraternity into a setting of those who are not part of the frat lifestyle and after a small amount of time, that individual conforms to the interests and beliefs of that group. Thus the strength of their fraternity is disproved. This is exactly the reason fraternities do not allow those of low income levels to enter their social groups. From an evolutionary stand point, diversity is beneficial in all forms. Thus a fraternity who lacks unconditional acceptance is flawed in its abilities.
the young man joined the fraternity for social acceptance but found unwarrented rivalries and economic discrimination.

A social group made up of men that actually do a lot of community service and gain a lot of connections for life. While some are expensive, you can talk to them to see if they can create a payment plan for you. These are often confused with unrecognized gangs that call themselves fraternities. Real fraternities don't rape women.

frat boys must have at least 20 shirts from their fraternity in their closet.
t-shirts are made about anything they do, inc road trips, campings, parties, dinners, and even the official (insert greek letters) 'taking a group dump' t-shirts

A group of men who enjoy promiscuous gay sex. They mostly like to eat jizz and have sex with sheep. Many believe they are responsible for the terrorist attacks on the world trade center.
Fratboy #1: One time I was having sex with a duck but it choked on my cock so I took it back to the petstore and asked for a sturdier duck but now i'm banned from that store for life. I'm also banned from the supermarket.

A sorry excuse for on-campus participation in clubs and a form of 'purchasing' friends or as they are known amonst themselves...'brothers', for life; in which their frats always has to be named around 2 to 3 greek letters, revolve around a 5 party school weekday with different types such as a 'kickback' or a 'hoe-down'...with non-stop spirits all night
Blond Sorority Girl: those guys from (Insert some random Greek letter here) Lambda Yada yada are so cool because they got me tipsy!
