Our Programs

First and Foremost

Immediately after accepting a bid of new membership, new members are required to attend First and Foremost. This program is designed to help them understand the values and purpose of fraternity and sorority life. The program helps students to understand university support and policies in regard to fraternity and sorority membership in addition

to being educated on topics including hazing, fire and life safety, leadership development opportunities, and time management.

Member Education

In addition to new member programs, we are also committed to the continued education of the active member throughout their fraternity or sorority experience.

Programs in the membership education series include: alcohol use and abuse, career planning, community involvement, leadership development, networking, risk management, etc.

Greek Week

In addition to many fun social events through the year, Greek Week is a week where Greeks plan and attend different events, which are open to the larger community. Greek Week is an effort for the Greek community to outreach in a fun and social way. Historically, events have included: Greek Jams (a lip sync competition), field day, bar-b-que, croquet with TUPD, a formal, and many other fun activities.

Housing Information

Sophomore fraternity and sorority members may fulfill the university’s residency requirements by living in their chapter house. Additionally, sophomores may fulfill their meal plan requirement if their chapter has a valid common victualler’s license, whether or not they live in the house. Breaking a university housing contract to live in a fraternity or sorority house is not a reason for refunding the room guarantee fee, so it is critical to make residency plans before signing a housing contract in the annual spring housing lottery.
