I think a name change would help attract students and improve its image for sure. As far as greek life goes there are a few NPHC orgs, but there are no IFC or NPC sororities on campus. They do have "social clubs" on campus which really work like local sororities--however they have 2 year and 4 year clubs...these clubs are for women. According to their web site they have one local fraternity.

A former GC poster attended the W...I believe she was a member of its "Highlander" club.
