YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAlexandra Robbins discusses her book, "Fraternity", at Politics and Prose.
In this presentation based on the companion volume to Pledged, her groundbreaking look at sororities, Robbins, an award-winning investigative journalist, will tell parents of both genders what they should know about boys of all ages, drinking, sex, and the college social scene. Intended to help parents and students who are in college, applying to college, or someday college-bound, Fraternity portrays the challenges, pressures, and expectations of today’s college boys. Robbins works to shift the common narrative of “boys will be boys” to “boys will be good humans.” To get to the truth behind the headlines, she interviewed dozens of current and former fraternity brothers, giving an honest look at the realities of an institution that dominates college social life. Join us for an exclusive pre-release opportunity to purchase and discuss the book.
