Welcome from the College Panhellenic Council

St. Mary’s University Greek life is a prominent section of campus life that every woman on campus should try to engage in during her educational years. Being Greek encompasses a number of ideals and opportunities for women to further enhance their personal lives with this great experience. Greek life at St. Mary’s University provides members of Greek-letter sororities with the opportunity to promote and maintain the four tenants of scholarship, service, leadership, and sisterhood.

Each of the sororities on campus strives to maintain the expectation that every student will continue to be a leader within the community and bring a respect to them on campus. Going Greek also offers you an environment with support and encouragement to live out the ideals put forth in each chapter creed. It is your responsibility to allow yourself the chance to find out more about Greek life and decide for yourself whether it is something that appeals to you.

Greek life is a great chance for new and continuing students to meet new friends, get more involved on campus, and aid the community through volunteer services. Being a member of a sorority is such a wonderful experience which words cannot be expressed only experienced. There are so many important and beneficial aspects to being part of the Greek life that allow each individual to grow and prosper as a student. Throughout your years at St. Mary’s University, you should try to learn more about Greek life and give yourself the possibility to consider becoming part of this group.

Welcome from the Interfraternity Council

Greek Life is a dynamic group of men and women on all of their campuses. Whether you are a scholar, an athlete or out to meet new people and get involved, Greek life is a place to call home amongst friends.

Your college years will be filled with hours in class, the library and studying at your desk. You will also find time to meet new people and explore the social scene on your campus. Fraternal life is a great way to meet new friends and make campus connections.

Joining a Fraternity is the choice of a lifetime. Membership in a Fraternity opens the door to new and exciting things during your college years and beyond. Fraternity life is an interesting combination of friendship, brotherhood, personal growth, and leadership, no matter which organization you choose to join. All are unique and you are sure to find your best fit in one of them.

The decision to participate in fraternity recruitment is one that should be well thought out and investigated. The most common way to pledge a fraternity is through the formal recruitment period. St. Mary’s University has an organization called IFC (Interfraternity Council) – the governing body that organizes activities including all fraternity chapters. IFC organizes the time and events that make up formal recruitment.

As you explore the Greek Life website, take the time to research all the organizations and remember that wherever you choose, you are joining a community like no other, Greek Life.
