It's interesting to see which politicians were also a part of Greek life back in their college days. I bet you didn't know that 18 U.S. presidents were former frat stars (according to The Center for Fraternity and Sorority Research). That's not all — I bet you didn't know that 76 percent of U.S. senators and 85 percent of Supreme Court justices were once pledges. Check out this list of a few notable politicians... it seems like your odds of becoming the POTUS seem to be better if you're a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon!
