That's kinda what I was getting at. These societies aren't limited to Greek letter fraternities found in colleges. We didn't have a greek system where I went, but we had other groups. Particularly "eating clubs" that some date back to pre-civil war. I suspect that there's not much difference between societies and Greek letter fraternities other than Greek letter fraternities seem to be limited to colleges.
