3 Letter to New Students Letter to Parents New UT Students, Congratulations on your decision to attend the University of Tennessee, Knoxville! As you prepare to begin a new chapter in your life, we want to encourage you to consider participating in fraternity and sorority recruitment or membership intake. Our Greek community is one of the strongest in the South and we would love for you to become a part of our Greek family! The UT Greek community is proud of its history and equally excited about the future. Our fraternities and sororities are looking for men and women who will contribute to their organization, the campus, and the community. It is a balance of scholarship, service, leadership and sisterhood/brotherhood. Greek life is not only a collegiate commitment but a lifetime one as well. If you choose to participate in recruitment/membership intake, you will learn more about the leadership and service opportunities in the organization, on campus, or within the inter/national organization. We are extremely proud that 75% of leadership positions on campus are held by Greeks. Fraternity and sorority members at UT donate countless hours to local and national service organizations. They also make a large financial impact through donations made to various philanthropic causes. In the celebration of Greek Week, the UT Greek community built a three story house for Habitat for Humanity. Giving back to the community is a key value of all Greeks. For additional information on fraternity and sorority life at the University of Tennessee, and other valuable information, please utilize the Greek Torch. You may also contact the offices of Panhellenic Affairs or Fraternity Affairs with any questions you may have. We invite you to participate in the recruitment or membership intake process. Being a member of a fraternity or sorority will make your years at Tennessee more enjoyable and will add value to your college experience. We look forward to meeting you in August. Go Vols and Good Luck! The Executive Boards of the, Panhellenic Council Interfraternity Council & National Pan-Hellenic Council Jeff Cathey Associate Dean of Students (865) jeffcath@utk.edu Greek Life Information (865) utkifc@utk.edu Jim Harrison Fraternity Affairs Advisor (865) harrison@utk.edu Sign up for Sorority Recruitment at: sorority.utk.edu Sign up for Fraternity Recruitment at: utkifc.com Panhellenic Affairs Advisor (865) (865) sorority@utk.edu Dear Tennessee Parents, On behalf of Panhellenic and Fraternity Affairs, we welcome your family to the Greek community at the University of Tennessee. Your student made one of the most important decisions of his or her life, and his or her decision to become a Tennessee Volunteer was the right one. As your son or daughter makes the major transition to college the experience can become a very exciting and challenging one for your student. This time brings new challenges and opportunities. As your student looks for ways to find their home away from home on a large, vibrant and diverse campus, we hope you will encourage your student to consider the benefits of membership in a fraternity or sorority. Membership in a Greek organization gives your student a unique opportunity to get involved on campus, gain leadership skills, develop interpersonal skills, form meaningful relationships, further enrich his or her academics, and discover what it means to be a contributing member of society. For the past 127 years, Greek life has been celebrated on the UT campus. Greek organizations are some of the largest and most visible student organizations on campus. Our 45 values-based organizations are comprised of 3500 students making up18% of the undergraduate student population. The Greek community is an integral part of student life at the University of Tennessee and we hope the tradition will continue with your student s membership. It is our hope you will encourage your son or daughter to make the best decision about whether or not he or she should be a part of Greek life. Educate yourself by reading through The Greek Torch to become more familiar with what our fraternities and sororities have to offer your child. We hope you will have a conversation with your student about what he or she is hoping to gain from membership in a Greek organization. Fraternities and sororities are different on every college campus, so please allow your student to choose an organization with which they feel most comfortable and can grow as an individual. Participating in recruitment or membership intake is a great way for him or her to meet new friends and make the lifelong commitment to a values-based organization. This resource will help your son or daughter gain more insight into which process is best suited for him or her. The Offices of Panhellenic and Fraternity Affairs are committed to the success of your son or daughter. Our mission is to enrich your student s life experiences and foster the values our organizations were founded on. We expect our Greek organizations to enhance the mission of the institution while focusing on their commitment to service, academic development, peer accountability, social experiences, advancement of brotherhood/ sisterhood and leadership development. Congratulations to your student on their decision to attend The University of Tennessee and become a part of Volunteer country. We hope The Greek Torch serves as a valuable tool as your son or daughter contemplates the decision to join our Greek community at UT. Have a wonderful summer and we look forward to seeing you in the Fall. Go Vols and Go Greek!

4 BENEFITS OF GREEK MEMBERSHIP Scholarship The purpose of college is to receive an education and Greek organizations are fully dedicated to the values of academic achievements within fraternities and sororities. In order to facilitate this, organizations provide an environment in which each member can achieve academic success. Most chapters have specific scholarship programs that encourage each member to strive for academic excellence. Chapters do this by regulating study hours, maintaining resource files, rewarding those who do well, and helping those with difficulties. The Panhellenic Council, Interfraternity Council and NPHC councils support academic excellence by co-spon- soring honor societies and awarding several scholarship awards each year. Traditionally, the All-Greek GPA is higher than the All Undergraduate GPA at the University of Tennessee. Men and women of Greek organizations are represented in many college honor societies such as Mortar Board, Alpha Epsilon Delta, Gamma Phi Beta, Order of Omega, Beta Beta Beta, National Society of Collegiate Scholars, and many others. Panhellenic Council has high expectations for all sorority members in regards to scholarship. Whereas, the Panhellenic Council may not mandate a grade point average in order to participate in sorority recruitment, it is recommended to have a minimum 2.75 high school and/or college grade point average. While the Interfraternity Council does not recommend a specific GPA to participate in recruitment, many fraternities have a GPA requirement to be initiated into the organization. Scholarship Facts 2010 Overall Undergrad Women s GPA: 3.12 Overall Greek Women s GPA: 3.16 Overall Undergrad Men s GPA: 2.92 Overall Undergrad Greek Men s GPA: 2.98 Leadership One of the biggest benefits you can receive from joining a Greek organization is the opportunity for leadership. Greek life gives you the opportunity for not only leadership Chapters above the non-greek undergraduate GPA Alpha Chi Omega Delta Zeta Alpha Delta Pi Kappa Alpha Alpha Omicron Pi Kappa Delta Beta Theta Pi Kappa Kappa Gamma Chi Omega Lamda Theta Alpha Delta Delta Delta Phi Gamma Delta Delta Gamma Phi Mu Zeta Tau Alpha within your chapter but on campus as well. Greeks at the University of Tennessee make up only 18% of the student body. However, over 75% of the leadership positions on campus are held by Greeks. No matter where you look on the UT campus, Greeks are in the spotlight. Greeks are heavily involved in Student Government Association, UT Ambassadors Scholars, Resident Assistants, the Central Programming Council, Orientation Leaders, Student Alumni Associates, professional and honor societies, athletics, and many more. Service Fraternities and sororities at the University of Tennessee spend hundreds of hours and raise thousands of dollars each semester for various charities. For example, our chapters work to benefit organizations such as the Arthritis Foundation, St. Jude Hospital, March of Dimes, East Tennessee Children s Hospital, and Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Each Greek organization has at least one philanthropy that they host events for each semester in order to raise money and awareness. In addition to their own chapter sponsored philanthropy events, the Greek Councils at the University of Tennessee actively participate in other campus and community-wide service projects. Panhellenic and IFC host holiday parties throughout the year for the Boys and Girls of Knoxville and participate in Dance Marathon, a campus-wide fundraiser that benefits the Children s Miracle Network. Each spring, the fraternities and sororities collectively build a Habitat for Humanity house as part of Greek Week activities. Brotherhood and Sisterhood One of the greatest benefits of joining a fraternity or sorority is the indescribable relationship that members form with one another. This bond of brotherhood or sisterhood is a lifelong friendship that is cultivated through chapter activities and relationships. During the new member period, members will become close with other members of their new member class, delve into the history and founding principles of their chapter, and learn the greatest aspects of being Greek at the University of Tennessee. In order to maximize the benefits of Greek membership, the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellnic Council do not tolerate hazing as part of the new member period, in accordance with university policy. Greek life is an unforgettable experience that molds and shapes students. Members of each chapter share similar goals, values, and ideals, providing students with a sense of acceptance and belonging. Brother and sisters are there to share the college experience, but they also remain close for years to come. Life of the Mind Summer Reading Program The University of Tennessee Greek community is pleased to support the Life of the Mind summer reading program. This program is designed to introduce new students to the academic and intellectual culture at our university. During Welcome Week, you will join classmates and professors to discuss the book in a small group setting. This year, the selected summer reading book is The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot. Reading this book and participating in activities related to it will help you develop a shared experience with your classmates, before even setting foot on campus. 6 7

We have maintained the integrity of our purpose by strengthening our ties to the Jewish community and servings as a link between high school and career. Throughout our history, the fraternity setting has served as a learning laboratory, a testing ground for young men who later become leaders in business, education, government, religion, and science. A goal of our fraternity is to help each student to develop character, to learn responsiblity, and to develop a proper set of values through living together in brotherhood. Alpha Epsilon Pi prepares young men for their role in life as responsbile citizens. Therefore, our basic purpose is to provide the opportunity for a Jewish man to be able to join a Jewish organization whos purpose is not specifically religious, but rather social and cultural in nature. Alpha Epsilon Pi is a Jewish fraternity, though non-discriminatory and open to all who are willing to espouse its purpose and values. Alpha Gamma Rho is a social/professional fraternity serving as the national agricultural fraternity. While we tend towards agricultural majors, all majors are accepting as long as the prospective member has an interest in agriculture.

We are located at 1840 Fraternity Park Dr. where we have been established for over 40 years. Our current chapter has around 70 members, and our house has space for 30 brothers to live in.

Sixteen phenomenal women founded the Zeta Delta Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and established themselves as the first Black Greek Letter Organization on the campus of The University of Tennessee. These phenomenal women chartered an organization for the community and that would service all mankind and would set a precedent of excellence that those who would follow would strive to look up to. The Zeta Delta Chapter has made history by participating in many community service events and philanthropies. Since its inception, Zeta Delta women have continued to promote the pledge to service scholarship and sisterhood on the University of Tennessee campus. The University of Tennessee has recognized our achievements by presenting ten of our Sorors with the Torchbearer award, the highest honor given to UT students. Omicron is Alpha Omicron Pi s longest existing chapter. Our chapter prides itself on our high level of academic achievement, community involvement, and sisterhood. Alpha Omicron Pi participates in a variety of activities on UT s campus such as: Vol Corp, Young- Life, Student Alumni Associates, The Cross, Student Government Association, UniTe, Clinic Vols, Timettes, and Orientation Leaders just to name a few! However, AOII s involvement is not limited to the University of Tennessee. We work closely with our philanthropy, the Arthritis Research Foundation, in raising money and informing others about the seriousness of arthritis. Each year we also participate in a philanthropy close to our chapter s heart, the Light the Night Walk for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, where we walk in remembrance of our sister Marla Rose Angotti. Our largest event we sponsor each year is the AOII barbecue. With its upcoming 51st anniversary, it is the longest running philanthropic event on UT s campus!

Alpha Phi Alpha, the first intercollegiate Greek-Letter Fraternity established for African- Americans, at Cornell University in Ithaca New York by seven college men who recognized the need for a strong bond of brotherhood among African Americans in this country. Alpha Phi Alpha has long stood at the forefront of the African-American community s fight for civil rights through leaders such as: W.E.B. DuBois, Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., Martin Luther King, Jr., and many others. Presently the Mu Iota Chapter hosts the Boys to Men program to assist freshman in undergoing the transition from High-School to college. The Mu Iota Chapter also has the distinction of having two of the only three African American SGA Presidents (Bro. John Claybrooks was elected and Bro. Curtis Sanderfer was elected ) and the only African American SGA Vice President (Bro. Cory Hipps elected ) at UT. In addition, the Chapter s membership is host to numerous other leadership positions on campus such as: numerous Resident Assistants, Orientation Leaders, Ambassador Scholars, and Black Cultural Programming Committee Chairmen. The brothers of Alpha Tau Omega welcome you to The University of Tennessee. Founded in 1865, The Pi Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega (ATO) was the first Fraternity on campus here at the University of Tennessee and the first Fraternity to have a house on fraternity row. Alpha Tau Omega is one of the oldest and most respected fraternities in the country. ATO s presence is especially strong here at UT. Within the past few years our house went under a recent renovation. Although having a recently renovated house is good, the brotherhood within the Fraternity is what is most important. We enjoy having one of the best tailgates on game days every Saturday in the fall, along with many events that include Homecoming Week, our Annual Viking Week, and many events with both other fraternities and sororities alike. Through active community and Greek life participation, Alpha Tau Omega provides an enriched and fulfilling college experience.

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was founded on January 13, 1913 by twenty-two collegiate women at Howard University. These students wanted to use their collective strength to promote academic excellence and to provide assistance to persons in need. The first public act performed by the Delta Founders involved their participation in the Women s Suffrage March in Washington D.C., March 1913.The Mu Zeta chapter works diligently to uphold the founding principles set by those before. In addition to community service, Mu Zeta works to promote academic success and a strong sisterhood within the chapter. Delta Tau Delta is the fastest growing, most involved, and has the strongest brotherhood on University of Tennessee s campus. Since our chapter was founded eighty-seven years ago, we have had a strong influence on UT s campus, due to the men that we choose to join Delt. All of our brothers were also highly influential in their high school, and the majority can say that they were elected Student Government President, awarded a Senior Superlative, Valedictorian, or selected as Captain of their Athletic Team. This has translated into exponential success in our undergraduate careers. Over 78% of our brothers are prominent in organizations outside of Delt, and we can boast that we hold the highest percentage of Greek men of the Orientation Leaders, Student Government Association, Freshman Council, Football Recruiters, Student Alumni Associates, and UT Tour Guides (Ambassadors). In addition to this, we are pleased with the success we ve had during Homecoming with Alpha Delta Pi, and Carnicus with Delta Gamma, and we re very excited about Homecoming with Zeta Tau Alpha this fall and All-Sing with Kappa Delta in the spring.

Along with a great social calendar, our alumni, one of the best alumni associations in the country, award scholarships to the active chapter and in the school year, awarded over $32,000 to thirty-six brothers. The chapter house is reopening in late summer 2011, after a $2.5 million dollar renovation project to better the way Sigma Phi Epsilon s brothers live, eat, study and have fun.

28 Interfraternity *$+,%&*-.)$/("0 President!"#$%&'$%#() Executive VP '"(1&23$4#", VP of Recruitment Council On behalf of the Interfraternity Council at the University of Tennessee, we would like to congratulate you on your acceptance to UT and your recent graduation from high school. Throughout your College experience, you will grow in ways you never thought were possible. Over the next four years you will be presented with many opportunities for personal growth and development. You will grow mentally, socially, spiritually, and interpersonally during this time. We believe that your growth and development can be significantly enhanced through your membership in a fraternity. Each chapter strives for success and their enthusiasm will become contagious in your steps toward personal development. Fraternity membership will allow you many experiences that will educate you in ways a classroom cannot replicate and will serve you well in your future endeavors. There are 21 IFC fraternities on our campus with each group sharing similarities with one another. Each fraternity has a very distinct heritage as well as a unique personality. There will be several opportunities for you to discuss chapter life with fraternity members. In addition, many fraternities may contact you with information about their respective chapters so please take advantage of these opportunities. They will allow you to learn more about the individual chapters here at UT as well as our Greek system as a whole. Please do not judge a chapter on a single member. Meet as many members as possible. Consider researching various fraternities you are interested in to figure out which values are congruent with your own core upbringings. It is important that you feel comfortable with the chapter you choose because they will be your brothers for the next four years and the rest of your life! I also encourage you to take advantage of the entire Interfraternity Council in regards to questions about your fraternity experience. Every student at UT has a perfect fit in this fraternal community and we all hope that you take advantage of this opportunity. People like Howard Baker, Jr., Jim Clayton, Bob Clement, Bob Corker, Johnny Majors, and Bill Stokely participated in fraternity life while at the University, leaders will emerge from our fraternity community. We look forward to seeing you embrace the mission of Interfraternity council which is to develop men who lead with integrity, encourage a high level of scholarship, support the development of each chapter that we represent, promote a sense of community and strive to set a standard of excellence for ourselves and others at the University of Tennessee.

Commonly referred to as the Divine Nine it represents the interest of four sororities, Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Phi Beta and Sigma Gamma Rho and five fraternities, Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma, Iota Phi Theta. It was created in order to create a collective voice of these organizations that aimed to service of all mankind while achieving uplift for the African American Community. The University of Tennessee chapter of the NPHC was chartered in It aims to follow the creed of the national organization as well as foster a cohesive network of all of the University of Tennessee campus. This chapter is represented by the sororities of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Phi Beta, Lambda Theta Alpha and fraternities Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega Psi Phi, and Phi Beta Sigma. With a history of chapters stemming back forty years to date, it has continues to strive to better the community every single day through its many various philanthropies and social events. Dear Potential New Members, On behalf of Panhellenic and the Greek Community, we would like to personally welcome you to the University of Tennessee! The life as a college student can be challenging at times, but extremely rewarding as well. During your time at UT, you will be presented with numerous opportunities to grow as an individual and as a leader. When you join a sorority, you also become a member of the largest and most diverse women s organization our campus has to offer, the Panhellenic community. The Panhellenic Council is the unifying, governing, and coordinating body of the 13 National Panhellenic Conference member groups at UT. Serving as a liaison for sororities, other campus organizations, and administration, Panhellenic is dedicated to facilitating the academic, social, and philanthropic development of each sorority and its members.from philanthropic service to campus-wide involvement, Panhellenic women continuously make a difference at the University. Each year, our community continues to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars to benefit various philanthropies of sororities and fraternities, and campus-wide fundraising events like Relay for Life and Dance Marathon. Panhellenic women pride themselves not only on academics, leadership, and service, but also on lasting friendships and support systems that will live on years beyond graduation. Your involvement in a chapter here, and Panhellenic overall, will create the path for you to grow as an individual and prepare for life after college. We look forward to sharing the Panhellenic experience with you!

30 Recruitment & Registration Process Recruitment Process The Panhellenic Council is the governing body of the 13 NPC sororities and 2 multicultural sororities on campus, which also plans the formal recruitment process. The Panhellenic Executive Board, Panhellenic Recruitment Team, and the Greek Recruitment Counselors (Gamma Chi) are an integral part of the recruitment process. Their purpose is to ensure that potential new members have a positive experience during recruitment week and will answer any questions needed. From the start of recruitment, potential new members (PNMs) are part of a small group of fellow potential new members and assigned a Gamma Chi (recruitment counselor). She is a member of a sorority, but during recruitment she is working for the Panhellenic Council. Each Gamma Chi has promised not to reveal her sorority affiliation; therefore, she can give unbiased advice and reduce the pressure a PNM might feel is she knew which sorority her Gamma Chi belongs to. Gamma Chis are also not allowed to speak to any member of their chapter during the week of recruitment. The Gamma Chis affiliationwith her sorority during recruitment is confidential. Registration Details Application Fee The application for Fall Recruitment 2011 is available online at The registration fee for all students is $70 through July 14th or $85 after July 15th. Any additional questions regarding recruitment should be directed ot the Panhellenic Affairs office through , sorority@utk. edu or phone, (865) Summer Orientation Sessions PNMs should make every effort to attend a summer orientation session. This session will provide further registration details, a brief overview of sorority life, and an opportunity to direct any questions to the Panhellenic Recruitment Team. Univeristy Housing All women participating in fall recruitment, living in university housing, will be permitted to move into their assigned residence halls on Saturday, August 13 beginning at 8:00 a.m. Gamma Chis will be available to assist with freshman move-in, if needed. Recruitment Orientation All Parents with daughters participating in recruitment are encouraged to attend the Recruitment Orientation for Parents on Saturday, August 13th at 5:00 p.m. located in the Alumni Memorial Building Auditorium. All women participating in recruitment are requried to attend a Recruitment Orientation on Saturday, August 13th at 7:00 p.m. in the Alumni Memorial Building Auditorium. PNMs will meet their Gamma Chi and become acquainted with their Gamma Chi group. Meals During Go Greek Round on Sunday, August 14th, lunch will be provided. Small refreshments and water will be available during the rest of the week, but no other meals will be served. Letters of Recommendation A recommendation is a written reference by an alumna to her sorority at UT which will give valuable and pertinent information about a potential new member (PNM). The letter is an introduction to the respective chapter about a PNMs academics, activities, and character. The National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) wants you to know the responsibility for providing recommendation letters for PNMs rests with the chapters that may need additional information. It is not a requirement of Panhellenic to obtain a recommendation but highly encouraged to further emphasize your interest in our different sororities. Recommendation letters should be secured and received by the Panhellenic Affairs office no later than August 2, If you wish to obtain a recommendation letter, here are suggested steps for submitting them to the chapters: 1. Decide who will write a letter of recommendation for you. If you know a sorority alumna already, it is perfectly acceptable to inquire if she would be willing to write a recommendation letter to her sorority. It is beneficial to have someone who knows you to write a letter of recommendation on your behalf. Think about teachers, coaches, family members, church members, neighbors, and family friends who may be a sorority alumna. Let them know you are participating in recruitment. 2. You may also check with your city or town to inquire about an alumnae Panhellenic or visit the Panhellenic Affairs website and national organization websites to learn more information about the area alumnae groups chapters have throughout the United States. 3. As a PNM you will then provide the alumna who is writing the recommendation letter with 2 pictures, a copy of your transcript if possible and a current resume or activity sheet no later than July 14, Recommendation letters may be sent to the Panhellenic Affairs office in care of the particular chapter at the address below by August 2, It is important to acknowledge someone who has written a recommendation letter with a short thank you note. Tell them that you are participating in recruitment and you would appreciate them submitting a letter of recommendation on your behalf. 6. Contact the Panhellenic Affairs office if you have any questions. The Panhellenic Council does not monitor or track recommendation letters. We simply distribute them to the respective chapter they are addressed to. Panhellenic Affairs Office 1531 W. Cumberland Ave. Knoxville, TN

33 Legacies & Disability Statement 259:3;5< A Legacy is usually defined as a granddaughter/grandson, son/daughter, brother/sister of an initiated sorority/fraternity member, unless a national organization recognizes additional relatives. Each chapter has it s own policies regarding legacies. Being a legacy of a chapter does not ensure that the potential new member will receive a bid from that chapter. Each potential member is considered on an individual basis; a legacy is no more obligated to join a particular sorority/fraternity than the sorority/fraternity is obligated to pledge her. The potential new member and the fraternity/sorority are looking for compatibiity and good conversation, not necessarily a family connection to that organization. Panhellenic and IFC have no policies regarding legacies. Each sorority/fraternity has their own policy regarding legacies and Panhellenic has no input in individual sorority/fraternity membership decisions. 0;<:=;8;>? *>:>5@5A> The Office of Disability Services (ODS) assists all students with documented disabilities by providing appropriate accomodations. It is the student s responsibility to request any individual assistance in advance. If you need disability assistance, please contact the Office of Disability Services at (865) Hazing Policy Under Tennessee State law hazing is a crime and is likewise a violation of the University Standards of Conduct. The UTK standards of conduct, policies and procedures can be found in the Hilltopics Student Handbook. (Online at: edu/hilltopics) Hazing means any intentional or reckless act, on or off university property, by one student acting alone or with others, which is directed against any other student and endangers the mental or physical health or safety of that student, or which induces or coerces a student to endanger his or her mental or physical health or safety, and includes treatment of a violent, abusive, shameful, insulting, or humiliating nature. Such action is prohibited when connected with initiation into or affiliation with an organization and does not include participation in customary athletic events or similar competition. Accomplices and bystanders of hazing could be named in a civil or criminal action involving any type of hazing. Report hazing immediately to: Office of Fraternity Affairs Panhellenic Affairs Office 413 Student Services Building 1531 W Cumberland Ave Knoxville, TN Knoxville, TN (865) (865)

34 The Cross - Wednesday Nights at 9 pm in Panhellenic Since 1999, God has given a group of people a call to serve in the Greek Community. It began with a group of students gathering together to discuss what it would look like to invite all the different Fraternities and Sororities to one place to Fellowship and Worship. What came out was The Cross. From Freshmen to Seniors we have got a place for everyone to come and be a part of our community. Our goal is not to take students out of the Greek lifestyle and away from their chapter, but to equip them and put them back in. We have established many Bible Studies within chapters and are looking forward to seeing one in every chapter. Our Adult Leadership Team has begun to work on making men and women available to be mentors for any student who would like one. With the usual ministry opportunities such as a weekly meeting, in-depth Bible Study, Fall and Spring Retreats, and even Fall-Break and Spring-Break Trips, we are striving to be more than just your average College Ministry. Our director has many years experience and our interns are recently College grads and are still very close to the Greek System. Stop by once or join our Student Leadership Team, the opportunities to get involved are endless!
