The thing is that I'm going to a more technical/engineering oriented school, and it just makes sense in my mind that frats there would be different, who knows... Gimme your thoughts and everything on frats, thanks!

Ok after posting this just hit me.
Your GF.
My then GF now wife was in a sorority, and in case you didn't figure it out women think differently then men
While frats tend to be rather lose, sororities are much more structured (and cleaner). There are a lot of activities they do based around dating, and more importantly dating a fraternity guy. Its not a requirement, but they seem to like these sort of things.
First there is the lavalearing (not sure how to spell it but I KNOW my wife does) ceremony. Then the pinning ceremony, THEN the engagement ceremony. (plus side is you get 2 extra steps to keep their mind off the ring a while heh)
There are formal dances, informal dances, parties, etc as well. You being in a frat will make it a whole lot more fun for HER as well. Now as a guy you most likely won't care about these things much but she will.
