When you join a fraternity or sorority, you commit to holding yourself to higher standards based upon the four pillars of the fraternity/sorority community: brotherhood/sisterhood, service, scholarship and leadership. Fraternities and sororities exist as a proven support network for you as a student to embark on this new period in life. Nationally, over nine million students are in a fraternity or sorority. At Sacred Heart, we have approximately 1,600 students in our eight sororities and 400 students in our six fraternities.Being part of a fraternity or sorority community can help personalize your experience at college by offering a scholastic support system, providing:
Hands-on experience in leading committees, managing budgets and interacting with faculty and administrators
Exposure to potential careers through educational programs and discussions with alumni
A chance to give back to the community through service projects
An opportunity to create close friendships with peers who will provide support when times are tough
Through the close fraternity and sorority life experience, it is no surprise that our students build lifelong connections that continue far beyond your undergraduate years!
