Who is actually in charge of the fraternity or sorority?
Fraternity and sorority members are elected to officer positions and manage the day-to-day operations of the organization. These officers are assisted by members serving on committees and by Alumni serving as advisors. All of our fraternities and sororities are also part of an (inter) national organization that offers support, advice, and direction through paid professional staff members and regional volunteers. Professional university staff is also employed to assist, educate, and monitor the activities of fraternities.
Each chapter has elected officers that run the day to day chapter operations. Those officers report to alumni and faculty advisors, and to the Greek Advisor at William Woods. Each chapter has at least one faculty or staff member on campus who advises the chapter. All chapters at William Woods report to their national organizations, and all national organizations are members of either the National Panhellenic Conference (Sororities) or the North-American Interfraternity Conference (Fraternities).
