Greeks At UWF

Sororities and fraternities have a history on campus dating back to the school's founding. These organizations are rooted in founding principles that foster academic achievement, student involvement, community service, and life-long friendships. Greek organizations are groups of men and women who come together to form a personal network of individuals with similar ideas, interests, and a mutual pursuit of a well-rounded college education.

• A support group to help make the adjustment to college easier.
• Scholastic resources to help students achieve their academic goals.
• Leadership skills acquired through hands-on experience.
• Encouragement to get involved and maximize their potential on campus.
• Opportunities for active participation in community service projects.
