Abstract: Given interest in understanding how fraternities inform students' capacities for leadership, the purpose of this critical quantitative study was to investigate the precollege characteristics and higher education experiences influencing orientation toward political and social involvement among college fraternity men. Results demonstrated significant differences among racially/ethnically minoritized groups, as well as the fraternal experiences that shaped political and social involvement orientation. We conclude by offering implications for research and practice pertaining to fraternity life.
