What are USU Greeks Involved In this Upcoming Fall?

At Utah State, there are a variety of ways to get involved in clubs, organizations, student activities, and honor societies. Membership in a Greek chapter will provide you with the foundation necessary to become a leader and a driving force for positive change on campus and in the community. Each fraternity and sorority strives to create well-rounded individuals through leadership training, innovative programming, and life-skill development.

Here are what some USU Greeks are involved in the Fall 2012 Semester:

Associated Students of Utah State University 

Christian Orr (ΣΦΕ), Jordan Hunt (ΣΦΕ), Hannah Blackburn (ΚΔ), Trent Morrison (ΣΦΕ), Sloan Bailey (ΚΔ), Chaise Warr (ΣΦΕ) and Ben Wilson (ΣΦΕ – not pictured) all have positions serving on Associated Students of Utah State University [ASUSU]. Look out for many fun events they will 

be planning this school year. 

Service and Philanthropy are a main part of Greek life and many members just can’t get enough and have chosen to give additional time to serving our community.

One great way to get involved is to join clubs within your major.

Going Greek provides many leadership opportunities within the Greek Community but also on campus. One way to start is to go with a friend to club meetings and see if that is the right fit for you. The Greek Community provides a conference each fall called, Greek Leadership Weekend, which is a great way to become a leader in the Greek Community.

If you are interested in any leadership positions or being involved on campus or in the Greek community contact Whitney Negrete, Greek Council Public Relations at whitneynegrete@gmail.com or any other member of Utah State Greek Council.
