leadership opportunities are numerous within the sorority community. Each chapter has

committee structures that allow you to be involved in all operational aspects of the sorority. As a chapter officer or coordinator of a chapter event, you can develop management and communication skills. You will have the chance to experience different roles in the chapter whether that’s handling finances during a philanthropy fundraiser or greeting guests during an alumnae dinner. Each sorority chapter also provides educational programming that will help you refine your time management, leadership, and communication skills. You will be encouraged by your chapter to become involved in campus-wide activities. Greek life is a

direct springboard into campus involvement including student governement, special interest organizations, honor societies, Capstone Men and Women, homecoming, Bama Bound, intramural sports and more than 300 other campus organizations. Striking a balance between academics and exracurricular activities is an important part of college life. Here at the Capstone, we believe campus involvement provides that well-rounded college experience.

Being Greek also provides a good resource network when seeking employment. Greek alumni understand the Greek experience of being both a team player and an individual, the desire to excel both in and out of the classroom and the commitment to give something back to the community. Through interaction with Greek alumni, you can begin building relationships that will help you in the future.
