IFC President's Welcome

01

A Welcome from our President On behalf of the twenty-five active chapters that make up the Interfraternity Council, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our IFC Viewbook.

Greek life at Penn is a unique experience. It is not a stretch to say that our Greek community encompasses a wider range of characters and cultures than can be found in any other Greek life in the nation. There is truly a place for anyone and everyone. Through the Greek community, you will befriend students from 6 continents, and from every nook and cranny of America.

You and 3,000 other students will share a common experience, unparalleled as a grounds for unanimity and as an avenue for discussing difference. The relationships you make in Greek life will stay with you for the rest of your life.

At a world-class institution, our community is a bastion of excellence, maintaining higher academic standards, retention rates, and initial job placement after graduation. These are simply the outward signs of strong community. We uphold a long tradition rich in history and campus involvement. This University has been built by Greek men and women.

Quite a few of your professors, not to mention members of the board of directors, talk with fondness of their time in Greek life. The connections with past generations of Penn Greeks runs strong; our alumni are our advocates and mentors. You will learn and grow into the mold of your fraternity, so choose wisely. Each fraternity has a unique set of values and manners; find the one where you will become your best self.

This Viewbook is intended as an introduction, so it should not be the end of your exploration. It is always better to hear it from the horse's mouth. Talk to current members and ask them about their experiences. Whether you are a parent, a prospective fraternity member, or currently affiliated with one of our chapters, I hope this guide will answer some of your questions. If not, please do not hesitate to contact members of the Interfraternity Council, chapter presidents, or the Office of Fraternity of Fraternity & Sorority Life. I look forward to meeting all of you in the future, at Penn or in the years beyond.

Louis Galarowicz 2020 IFC President

Who and What is the IFC?Â

02

As a longstanding university with a rich history, many organizations have been present on Penn’s campus for more than 100 years. The history and traditions of each chapter continue to inspire longlasting community, leadership, and alumni support.

Belong: Thriving at Penn is about finding people you can count on. Our fraternities look like events, philanthropy, and houses to outsiders, but what makes our brotherhoods impactful are the close, reallife, and genuine relationships that last a lifetime.

Support: College is a fun, exciting time of your lives, but it can also be challenging. As you experience the highs and lows of school and life, you are surrounded by a group of people who have pledged to support and care for you.

Benef its of Greek Life and Resources

03

Benefits of Greek Life Community Greek life gives students the chance to meet friends and like-minded people. It also gives you the chance to connect with people from other Greek organizations, and the chance to form intimate bonds with the brothers/siblings in ones organization.

Academic Support Fraternities consist of students across all years of undergraduate study. Many members will have the same major and can often be in the same classes. This can lead to the formation of study groups, tutoring sessions, and study hours. Greek Life students at Penn also have a higher average GPA than non-Greek students.

Networking Participating in Greek life offers benefits once you've graduated. Many organizations have networks and alumni around the world that can help you find jobs, get career advice, and get resources after graduation. Many Greek members are leaders in their fields and you never know who you might meet through a Greek life connection.

Leadership Fraternities offer members the chances to gain leadership experience. As an officer of ones organization or as an officer on the IFC Board, Greek members have the opportunity to make important decisions, and practice cooperative leadership skills. These experiences also look good on a resume.

Campus Resources

Counseling and Psychological Services If you are ever in need for any help with personal situations or similar issues, do not hesitate to visit.

Additional Greek Councils at Penn INTERCULTURAL GREEK COUNCIL (IGC) @upennigc

PANHELLENIC COUNCIL (PHC) @pennpanhellenic

IGC is comprised of 4 fraternities and 7 sororities. Each of those 11 chapters are a member of one of the national umbrella groups: National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO), National Asian Pacific Islander Desi American Panhellenic Association (NAPA), and National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC). IGC strongly promotes community service and cultural appreciation.

The University of Pennsylvania Panhellenic Council is comprised of 7 women’s fraternities and sororities and values empowerment, leadership, and peer support.

IGC conducts recruitment/intake processes which may include interest meetings and/or chapter-specific events where candidates can learn about the organization. All second-semester freshmen, as well as sophomores, juniors, and seniors, are eligible to participate in recruitment/intake if they meet the eligibility requirements for OFSL and the member organization.

Panhellenic Primary Recruitment is the formal process through which potential new members consider sororities, while sororities choose new sisters. The Primary Recruitment period is comprised of multiple rounds where potential new members visit each of the chapters on Penn’s campus.

Through a process of mutual selection, students narrow their choices until they are matched to a sorority following the last round.

Recruitment and New Member Info

04

Potential New Member Information Eligibility We are committed to the success of each individual student who decides to join our community. Because of this, we enforce the requirements below for people looking to join a chapter.

1. Be a full-time enrolled undergraduate student in good standing with the University of Pennsylvania 2. Have at least 4.0 course units completed on their University of Pennsylvania transcript.

3. Have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.50.

Recruitment Interested in going through the recruitment process? Most fraternities offer recruitment in the fall and spring, but freshmen at the University of Pennsylvania are not able to join a Greek organization until their spring semester. If you do decide to join one of our many organizations, every chapter has their own new member education along with mandatory training required by the IFC.

Spring 2021 Recruitment Information The IFC at Penn is glad you have taken the first steps to become a member of the fraternity & sorority community. The IFC is currently a community of 25 recognized and active social fraternities: 23 are men’s-fraternities and 2 (Alpha Delta Phi Society and Delta Phi/St. Elmo Club) have coed/gender-inclusive memberships.

Even in a virtual environment, our purposes have not waivered. At our core, we strive to provide a place of belonging where members experience fellowship, develop interpersonally, succeed academically, and contribute positively to Penn, Philadelphia, and society as a whole. Fraternities at Penn are values-based organizations and comprise a wide array of individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences.

To learn more about the community, view the following: Office of Fraternity and Sorority (OFSL) website and IG @penngreeks; IFC website and IG @penn.ifc. Both websites show a list of recognized IFC fraternities.

Unfortunately, at Penn, some groups of students operate independently but refer to themselves as fraternities. They are not affiliated with the IFC since they were de-recognized by their National Headquarters for severe health & safety violations related to hazing, alcohol, drugs, and/or other incidents. The organizations in this viewbook are the only recognized fraternities at Penn.
