Why Go Greek?
Leadership
The fraternity and sorority community offers a variety of leadership opportunities to prepare students for future careers. Members are eligible for elected or appointed positions and committee participation within the chapter. Fraternity and sorority members are some of the most active and visible student leaders on campus. You will see Greeks participating as Orientation Week Leaders, Associated Students of ULV, Housing and Residence Life, Campus Activities Board, Intramurals, and various other clubs and organizations.
Scholarship
Academic achievement is a value of the ULV fraternity and sorority community. Members are encouraged to strive for scholarly excellence through incentive programs, study hours, workshops, and Greek recognition. Members are rewarded for their academic achievements through chapter events and by membership in the Order of Omega Greek Honor Society. Each fraternity and sorority maintains internal academic standards that all members are expected to achieve.
Community Service
The fraternity and sorority community is committed to participating in community service and philanthropic efforts. As a fraternity or sorority member, you will have the opportunity to support the local and campus community by being involved in volunteer activities.
Network/Support
On a campus with over 1500 students, it is important to find a network of friends and allies to provide the support needed to be successful. Members are encouraged to participate in other campus life programs and to join other student organizations. Intramural sports and special campus events provide even more opportunities to meet students, faculty and staff from various departments. The fraternity and sorority experience is not limited to the college years, as it continues through adulthood. Alumni/ae associations are available across the country and the potential for career connections are endless.
Social Life
Offering a break from the demands of the classroom is one of the benefits of the Greek community. Throughout the year fraternities and sororities will participate in many social events such as Greek Week, Athletic events, all-Greek mixers, cookouts, and spring formals. These events not only allow you to spend time with your chapter members, but also give you the opportunity to socialize with other Greeks.
Friendship
The result of fraternity and sorority membership: a bond that transcends time and space- a friendship that lasts a life time. A fundamental principle of every fraternity and sorority chapter is friendship: a brotherhood or sisterhood that one shares through the good times and provides support during the difficult challenges that come with being a college student. The fraternity and sorority chapter provides opportunities for members to periodically assemble and renew those bonds of friendship: Homecoming, Retreats, newsletters, and Greek Week.
