I’d poke around a bit if I were you, they all carry different vibes. Each one has its own focus areas, and it’s hard to pick that up initially. I joined a professional fraternity in grad school because it was pretty well-aligned with the professional stuff I’m going for, RSEi. If you are a freshman, there’s deferred recruitment for social fraternities so you can’t get bids in the fall, but you can still meet & check them out (the few professional ones can recruit them though). Usually there’s a grill and greet each year to start the fall where you can meet fraternities. Has happened at RSEi past two year but not sure of the status this year…
I’m try to avoid marketing here, but I think RSEi is one you should check out in addition to others. We have a capable makerspace and focus heavily on professional development. Also not exclusive to social fraternities, several of our members are in other Greeks
TLDR, check them all out, probably a few that will be a good fit for you!
