Being a member of the Community is both an honor and a responsibility knew that before making the incredible decision of serving as the community as the coordinator My favorite time of the year is recruitment because it means more students are joining growing community.

One of the most important aspects of joining a fraternity or sorority is the bond of brotherhood and sisterhood. There is a sense of unity and friendship among members of each chapter, as well as a feeling of Greek unity on campus.

Brotherhood BSisterhood rotherhood Sisterhood
The recruitment process introduces students to individuals who come together to share common interests and form a cohesive group. It's often said, “Friendships developed in college will last a lifetime ” Greek life is an experience that one never forgets. Students find that members of their chapter will have similar goals, values, and ideals. Having these things in common with the organization provides a sense of acceptance and belonging. Brothers and sisters will be there to share the college experience, and will also stay close for years to come.
ULM recognizes fifteen Greek organizations three fraternities within the Interfraternity Council, four sororities within the National Panhellenic Conference, and eight sororities and fraternities within the National Pan Hellenic Council each of which is a campus chapter of a national group. Regardless of the fraternity or sorority a student chooses, membership in a Greek organization will enhance the collegiate experience. ULM’s Greek community invites all students interested in joining a fraternity or sorority to participate in the membership recruitment or membership intake process. Dates of these events are available in the Greek Life office and on the Greek Life website

Generally, the membership intake process begins with an informational meeting. At the informational meeting, interested students learn more about a specific organization and details of the application process for that organization. After the informational meetings, potential members or aspirants are asked to complete a membership application and show proof that they have achieved the organization's minimum standards for academics, community service, and leadership. Following the submission of an application, interviews and selections will take place.
NPHC organizations at ULM recruit members through a process called Membership Intake. NPHC fraternities and sororities will individually announce their membership selection/intake process during the semester and will explain their membership process at the initial informational meeting. NPHC organizations decide on having intake each semester and there is no guarantee that intake will take place on a regular schedule. It is highly recommended that interested students research each fraternity or sorority carefully and attend events sponsored by the respective chapters and NPHC as a whole.
Any student that is interested in NPHC Greek Life should attend the mandatory Greek ish event. This event is mandatory for all students planning to participate in the intake process. Greek-ish is an amazing opportunity for students who are interested in learning more about NPHC fraternities and sororities at ULM. Greek ish will take place once in both the fall and spring semester. During this event, you will be given a document regarding hazing. The Greek Life office must have this document signed and on file.

ney garrett President Kappa Delta was founded in 1897 by four women at a small university in Virginia. Since then, Kappa Delta Sorority has grown into a national organization for women committed to providing opportunities and experiences that promotes personal and professional growth for a lifetime. In 1967, the Delta Zeta chapter of Kappa Delta was founded on ULM’s campus. Members have gained friendships, mentors, role models, and a community among the women who are members of this chapter both past and present. Prevent Child Abuse America (PCAA) and Girl Scouts of the USA are Kappa Delta’s two national philanthropies. Through events with Girl Scouts, members are able to build confidence in the girls of our community and see firsthand the impact they make in the lives of girls. Each year, the chapter hosts a Shamrock 5K to raise money for PCAA and the Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home. On top of having the Highest GPA of Greek Life, Kappa Delta encourages its members to excel both within the chapter as well as on campus in other organizations. Members are participants in a variety of organizations including PREP Staff, Mardi Gras Court, Homecoming Court, Campus A i i i B d nd Student Government
