Hello, I am new to GC and fairly new to Greek life. I'm a freshman at JWU, sadly Greek life sucks here on campus. I LOVE Greek life and what fraternities/sororities have to offer. There is only 4 fraternities that one can join. Yah sure me and my very close friend love them all but they are not what we are looking for. Tell you the truth, we want to start our own fraternity; adding a new chapter onto campus. 10 years ago, 1 out of 6 students where in a fraternity now only 3% of students are.

We have ALOT of big ideals, ALOT!

My question is... I need help. We need guidance on what to do. Right now we are searching the crap out of starting a fraternity and what must be done. Help please!

Where is JWU?

There is a lot envolved in starting a new group on a campus. I know for a fact.

I too found the GLOs lacking in what I wanted and began to change it.

First, have an idea fo what you want to do, Affiliate with a Natioanl Organization which you seem to be wanting to do.

Be concerned with membership and find enough members to want GLOs to be interested in your group. What is the feeling of Greeks on campus, the mix of he and she Glos.

How many GLOs are on campus with the number of students.

What is the Schools feeling about Greeks on camus, friendly or not?

What GLOs are in the area that you are looking at and who is expanding.

Many GLOs today expand including LXA, TKE, Chi Phi and others but are still very careful about expanding on a campus where the feelings may be anti greek.


PM me if you have further questions.

Good luck to you!
