Fraternity & Sorority Life At ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼
Each fraternity and sorority has their own set of individual standards and principles, but as a campus community there are four values we believe in and strive to fulfill: leadership, scholarship, service & philanthropy, and brotherhood/sisterhood.
Leadership
Greek organizations provide an excellent place to gain the experience and knowledge necessary to develop strong leadership skills. Serving as an officer or committee chair in a chapter or governing council will help an individual develop a multitude of leadership skills, including but not limited to conflict management, delegation, decision making, and effective communication skills. Being a member of a fraternity or sorority often expands to involvement in other areas of campus such as student government, clubs, and organizations.
Scholarship
Scholarship is an important aspect of fraternity and sorority at ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼. Minimum grade point averages are required in each chapter for affiliation, initiation, and maintenance of good standing.
Service & Philanthropy
¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼ fraternity and sorority members take service to others to heart through philanthropic and community service endeavors. Many organizations have a specific service or philanthropy, such as Susan G. Komen Foundation, Ronald McDonald House, and Adopt A Highway. As a fraternity or sorority member, you will have the opportunity to support the local and campus community.
Brotherhood/Sisterhood
Joining a fraternity or sorority means becoming part of a family. Fraternity/sorority brothers and sisters provide a "home away from home" for ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼ students. The brotherhood and sisterhood that they develop is one that students share through good times and provides support during the difficult challenges that come with being a college student. The friendships that our members make with their chapters lasts a lifetime.

Greek Council
Greek Council is the governing body of all social Greek organizations and serves as the liaison between Student Activities and each Greek organization. Greek Council functions under the authority of the Dean of Student Life and Learning.
Members of Greek Council are appointed through their respective fraternity or sorority and also include each organization’s president. Inter-Fraternity Council (IFC) and Inter-Sorority Council (ISC) presidents sit on Greek Council as non-voting members. Meetings occur once each month. Greek Council sponsors Greek Week every year. The purpose of IFC and ISC is to coordinate the overall policies and activities of the social fraternities and sororities further relations between social groups, act as a medium in cooperation between the administration of ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼ and individual fraternities and sororities, and to mediate between the student body and the member organizations.
