We woke in the early morning; rising early after a party is something we both had in common. The sun was barely up, and we could see Frat Row through her windows. The backs of the nearest fraternity houses were littered with red solo cups and bits of clothing. We were never people for Greek Life; the trail club fulfilled that potential void quickly, with our own code, friendships that surpassed any academic major or other extra-curricular interest, and incestuous relationships within the club.
In college I was always curious about if frat parties were as insane as the movies showed, if sorority girls were as slutty as I had heard. Near graduation I was chatting with a friend of mine from my major – we had shared multiple classes over the last four years, and while we weren’t close friends, we knew each other well enough in the academic setting. He was in a fraternity, and a few of his brothers came over to join our conversation on the quad. The frat boys caught up, and one of them relayed a short story about an ‘after-party party’ he had the previous weekend: a three-some with his girlfriend and one of her sorority sisters, who was also a girlfriend of one of their frat brothers.
