What Does it mean to be Greek?
Service Our Greek community has a special commitment to philanthropic work. Each sorority focuses on national philanthropies, but all donate service to several local agencies. Because of the strength in numbers and organizational qualities found in sororities, these women achieve great success in aiding the community.
Scholarship Greeks at AUM have a high standard of scholarship. Members of all organizations are encouraged to strive for excellence in scholarship and are awarded for their academic achievements. Scholarship and academic excellence is something that all Greeks strive for throughout their college career. Social Brotherhood and Sisterhood are the backbone to all Greek organizations. While academics and philanthropy are main focuses, social activities give the Greeks of AUM a much needed break from the daily grind of classes. Social events provide the opportunity to meet new people and form long-lasting friendships. Participation in these activities is not required in order for you to belong to a Greek organization, but there is little comparison to the fun and excitement of Greek social events. Leadership Being Greek at AUM gives students the ability to explore the many different aspects of leadership. Greek members can run for office within their own chapter, as well as gain positions on the various Greek Councils and Communities. Becoming a member of a fraternity or sorority opens doors to leadership roles that can prepare individuals for their future careers. Being Greek offers you an excellent opportunity to make an impact on your community as a leader.
