Greek organizations are a vibrant part of Hillsdale College life. Four fraternities and three sororities grace Hillsdale’s campus. In fact, nearly 40 percent of our students are members of Greek organizations. As a group, they’re among our highest achievers. That’s because our fraternities and sororities stress the importance of academics, character, leadership and involvement.

Through their affiliation with Greek organizations, our students take on leadership positions and gain confidence. They volunteer in our community. They plan educational programs, host faculty dinners, organize annual social events and learn to balance their time and their commitments. By living with each other in the Greek houses, they discover how to work together toward common goals and to undertake governing and fiscal responsibilities.

The Panhellenic Council and the Interfraternity Council (or IFC) govern the sororities and fraternities. These two councils are composed of elected student leaders whose responsibilities include setting standards of excellence, creating guidelines and developing programs.
