How can I help?

- Encourage your student to attend educational programs in the chapter and on campus.
- Know the contact information for the chapter, big brother or big sister, fraternity/sorority Headquarters, and the Office of Greek Affairs
- Find out the details of the financial obligations of the fraternity/sorority.
- Encourage your student to take a leadership role in his Chapter.
