FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES<br />

<strong>Illinois</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Technology</strong> affirms that social Greek organizations constitute an integral part <strong>of</strong> the<br />

campus community. Recognizing that membership in a Greek organization can be <strong>of</strong> significant<br />

educational value, the university supports the concept that membership can be a worthwhile<br />

component to a student’s life. These seven fraternities and three sororities afford their members<br />

leadership development, academic support and a range <strong>of</strong> social activities. Many <strong>of</strong> these organizations<br />

have received national honors for their services and achievements. Please feel free to contact the Office <strong>of</strong><br />

Residence and Greek Life at 312.567.5075 for more information.<br />
