Sororities offer college women an opportunity to become involved at university beyond simply attending classes. Sorority membership begins as a part of college life and provides a lifetime of learning and involvement. Sororities are national or international sisterhoods with chapters across North America. Sororities offer a warm, caring atmosphere that encourages individual development by providing sound scholarship, leadership opportunities, community outreach, and lifelong friendships. All sororities are values based, committed to high principles and worthwhile endeavors.
