The book delves into the evolution of traditionally white college fraternities in America, examining how fraternity brothers have shaped concepts of masculinity over 180 years. Through research at twelve institutions and analysis of twenty national fraternities, it explores how factors like class, race, and sexuality have influenced fraternal identities. Additionally, it highlights the impact of these masculinities on campus culture, particularly regarding the exclusion of marginalized groups and the sexual exploitation of female students.
