Why Go Greek?

Each Greek organization is founded on a set of unique principles. This allows for a strong and sacred bond that is held together by a common purpose. Rowan University’s Greek community is assembled by great standards of excellence that regulate the fraternity and sorority experience. As a thriving Greek Community of 39 recognized fraternities and sororities, our overarching core values including scholarship, leadership, community, and tradition are what bring us together as one.

The Greek community at Rowan University has been in existence since 1961, with a continuing tradition of excellence. Through the years, we have been a community that fosters academic excellence, leadership abilities, philanthropic services, and active contributions to both the campus and Glassboro community. While each organization maintains its’ own activities, traditions, and national affiliations, each is founded on similar principles of scholarship, leadership, community service, and lifelong friendship.

Our Greek community has developed extensive self-governing policies concerning human rights, hazing, and substance abuse. In addition, the Inter-Greek Council, comprised of undergraduate chapter members, serves as the governing body for fraternities and sororities. The Greek experience at Rowan University provides a safe and fun way to maximize the college experience.
