Interesting topic! Here are a few of my suggestions. Firstly, I like the ideas you have so far for the section "What attracts individuals to Greek life?" Perhaps you could also mention that being in a fraternity is a "life-long" thing because they are classified as alumni after they graduate. I know some people who have joined fraternities/sororities for connections (which can help them with regards to attaining jobs), scholarships, and how fraternities appear to be "fun." Some people may be joining because they are exposed to so many people, so they'd likely make new friends! Perhaps this is worthwhile mentioning.

Furthermore, in the "Society" section, perhaps you could mention hazing? I don't know how prevalent it is in Canada, but I know it is a problem in the United States. Hazing would inevitably have an impact on how society members few fraternities. I think this could certainly be tied to masculinity, as new fraternity members are often perceived as "less than" when they deny engaging in hazing. Lastly, I love that you have the perception of fraternities from different standpoints (females, males, society and the fraternity itself). I think this is a wonderful idea to add depth to your topic. - Gagan Cheema
