Greek Week

 

Greek Week is a week long celebration for all of the fraternities and sororities on campus. It is a chance members of the various Greek-lettered student organizations to come together to celebrate the spirit and pride of being apart of a fraternity/sorority. United together, the Greek community uses this time to show their passion for scholarship, service, leadership and brother/sisterhood. All events are open to the campus community.
