Just understand that the Greek system is pretty much the only show in town. I did not know that, I kind of just picked SMU because my whole family had gone here. I did not join a fraternity, and I have moved through college largely without any permenant friends. I regret coming to SMU probably once a week, because I am constantly told that "college is the time of your life" or how much people wish they had the opportunities that I have. For me, that just reminded me that there is a huge opportunity cost every night I sit around alone or go get drunk at a bar. People are making memories or friends that they are going to have for life, and I am not. Between familial expectations and SMU's scholarships, I am pretty much trapped here until I graduate. But these are my problems, and I made my choices. Try not to make the same mistakes.
