I think there was a strong Greek community. At the time, the school was more of a commuter school and it didn't have the facilities to house a typical enclosed/integrated University environment (by that I mean, it was spread out, less dorm rooms, no on-site restaurants, entertainment, etc.). If you needed something, you most certainly had to leave campus. Even our football stadium we rented from the city. So to go to games, you needed to drive 20 minutes downtown.
