MIT fraternities are "Greek light" (or even "Greek skim") as compared to what is shown in Animal House and in the news on other universities.
I think the independent living group structure at MIT is fairly unique and makes for a large part of the students' experience and some of my strongest memories are living group related, probably 2:1 over laboratory or classroom related memories. I'm a strong supporter of the living group situation at MIT, even with the problems that come along with it. (I think that a certain level of problems are unavoidable when contemplating the first-time independent living of 17-22 year olds, whether coed or single-sex, dorm or independent living group.)
