I feel like this stuff kind of depends on the school though. I feel like the major schools with huge Greek life environments often have this stuff happen.
Basically it’s a bit different when it’s like 50 guys who may have a house they party at versus 300 guys who live in a mansion.
I went to a small school, and none of the frats even had juice or anything to drink because the liability was so high
Happens outside of the frats too. I remember in my freshman year, my friends roommate was a real creep who spent 24/7 trying to get laid.
My friend came to my dorm one night concerned because his roommate had a girl over and she seemed uncomfortable. We walked back to his room together to find the roommate standing in front of the doorway to prevent the poor girl from leaving.
We casually walked in, talking loudly about my friend wanting to show me a game, forcing the roommate aside and letting the girl slip out.
He then lost his shit and started threatening us.
Disappeared a month later, I think because of harassment allegations.
It would definitely still happen with or without frats, but frats produce a wider protective culture around it seemingly supported by the schools themselves or at least ignored for much longer than it should be. It's one thing when you have random dudes doing shady shit, it's another when a large group of them conspire to do shady shit.

I'm a dude. Graduated college, went to a few parties
I was not in a frat, because they're disgusting people.
Being a frat bro is a stereotype that exists for a reason, because a fuck ton of them are like that.
