James Madison University - JMU 1.0 James Madison is right at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to Greek life. Nothing special about it, anyone can get a bid, the process is super easy, 97% of the girls are very shallow. Wouldn't waste ur time money and effort like I did.

James Madison University - JMU 3.8 Harrisonburg has made it unnecessarily hard for greek life to thrive lately, but there are still overall really fun parties here. Sororities don't haze, and tend to have ~200 girls each, and frats are more around 60-80 guys each, so there's a good girl to guy ratio at most parties. Definitely not the same as southern greek life or anywhere near it, but as far as Virginia goes, JMU Tech and UVA are about as good as it gets.

James Madison University - JMU 1.0 There's just nothing special here, like said in previous posts- anyone can get a bid. JMU just isnt on the same college level as schools with ACTUAL great Greek life so not having actual houses is minor to overall

James Madison University - JMU 3.0 not having big houses with letters on them definitely hurts jmu greek life. It's hard to establish a good reputation when fraternities houses often switch hands and everyone has like 5. Rush here is very different from other schools especially for guys it doesn't make sense how anyone meets the rushees before you give them a bid. Parties are fun tho till the cops shut them down.
