WHY GO GREEK?

Career & Leadership Development Opportunities

Greeks have the benefit of being connected to national organizations that promote leadership development through conferences, seminars, training etc. Sororities and fraternities allow students the opportunity to have not only positions, but many responsibilities that can add value to a resume. Monmouth College also offers some leadership programs exclusively for members of Greek organizations.

Academic Support & Excellence

Each fraternity and sorority values academics and supports their members through various means. Each organization has support groups, tutoring, group study hours, study resources, scholarship recognition and scholarships. The overall Greek GPA is higher that the all campus GPA.

Social & Sport Activities

Greek life has a plethora of planned social events that all Greeks can participate in. Some events include skating parties, socials with other Greek organizations, formal and informal dances, annual Greek Week events, recreation sports, spontaneous pickup games, just to name a few.

Lifelong Friends

During college incredible friendships are made. Belonging to a sorority or a fraternity adds that much more to the experience. The people you meet become your brothers and sisters whom you share great moments and challenges with along the way. It is a huge support network to help you get through college, be your best man at your wedding and to grow old with.

Career Networking

All national sororities and fraternities have some sort of career network that can help connect you to your career path. Additionally, Monmouth College has a huge networking base. Give the Wackerle Center a call and we can try to hook you up with someone from your same Greek organization in the geographic location that you would like to work in. This is a great way to connect!

Civic Engagement / Service / Philanthropy

Greek organizations were founded on the service to others principle. Therefore, a core value is to "give back to the community". Last year Greek members volunteered over 1200 hours of their time and raised in excess of $5,000 for various charities including the YMCA, American Cancer Society, breast cancer research, and Warren County Library.

Lifetime Membership

When you join a Greek organization you make a lifelong commitment. After college you can be involved as much or as little as you would like to be. This includes getting involved in a local alumni association and or becoming a national officer. Each fraternity and sorority offers lifetime benefits for MEMBERS ONLY!
