How will my student benefit from joining a fraternity or sorority?
Fraternities and sororities are rooted in founding principles that foster academic achievement, student involvement, community service, and life-long friendships. Advantages include: * A support group to help ease the adjustment to college. * Scholastic resources to help student achieve their academic goals. * Leadership skills acquired through hands-on experience. * Encouragement to get involved, stay involved and maximize their potential on campus. * Opportunities for active participation in community service projects. Furthermore, National studies conducted annually consistently indicate that students who choose to join Greek-letter organizations experience many positive benefits, including the following: * Greek students are more likely to stay in college than non-Greek students. * College graduates who belong to a sorority or fraternity tend to be more financially successful than other college graduates. * Greek alumni give both more money and more frequently to their alma maters
