Every senior can take on a 1st year (or two) as their buddie(s). They show them around, help the fit in etc. -- Posted by mini4112 at 5:07 pm on Dec. 4, 2007 no -- Posted by gprime at 4:47 pm on Dec. 5, 2007 Not per say, no. Most fraternities have "big brothers" that help teach their pledges about the fraternity, get comfortable on campus, and things like that. They can grow close, but there is no compulsion to hang out together if they aren't so inclined. -- Posted by amiee at 6:26 am on Dec. 7, 2007 yes! my university is really famous for having academic families. i currently have a mum, dad, two sisters, a brother and so many uncles and aunts. (mum&dads can only be in their third year, so it's absolutely great for meeting new people). and, after the first two months at uni you still haven't found an academic family, you go to the orphan bop and you can get some there. :] godddd, i miss uni. -- Posted by drae09 at 10:30 am on Jan. 24, 2008 no but i will -- Posted by emochild1 at 12:49 pm on Mar. 6, 2008 I did.
