Welcome to campus! Now that you’re here, it’s time to get involved. There is no shortage of student organizations to choose from and each has its own benefits. To help you navigate our community, Sorority and Fraternity Life (SFL) in the Office of the Dean of Students created this Texas Greek Info Guide for you to take a moment and check out our community!
4
Sororities and fraternities have grown considerably on campus since the first fraternity and sorority were founded in 1883 and 1904, respectively. More than 60 Greek letter organizations are active and thriving today. We hope you’ll decide to be part of the legacy that is Texas Greeks.

TO THE CLASS OF 2030 Welcome to The University of Texas at Austin! Your time as a Longhorn will be filled with opportunities to grow, learn and discover the communities that will shape your college experience in meaningful ways. This guide serves as an introduction to the vibrant sorority and fraternity community at UT Austin, representing nearly 16% of undergraduate students and countless opportunities for involvement, leadership, friendship and support. As a sorority member myself, I know firsthand the impact Greek life can have on your college experience and beyond. Joining my sorority made a large campus feel smaller and helped me find lifelong friendships and a true sense of belonging. It also connected me to a network of people who continue to support and encourage one another long after graduation. Those relationships, professional connections and moments of community have continued to add value throughout my life and career. Each of the council communities highlighted in this guide brings its own unique history, traditions and opportunities for connection. Across all councils, sorority and fraternity members excel in their academic pursuits, serve their communities, develop leadership skills and build lasting relationships with others who share their interests and passions. Whether you are looking to get involved, meet new people, give back through service, or find a place to call home at UT Austin, we encourage you to explore the opportunities within Sorority and Fraternity Life. Our dedicated staff and student leaders are here to answer questions, provide support and help you determine if this experience is the right fit for you! Hook ’em!

FAMILY GUIDE 8
This guide is an important resource for students exploring sororities and fraternities, as well as a valuable tool for parents, guardians and family members. We hope the following pages will answer your questions and provide helpful information.
SORORITIES AND FRATERNITIES: Are steeped in a great deal of tradition and have been founded with maintained values, ethics and standards.
Distinguish their organizations by using letters from the Greek alphabet, which have special meaning to each organization and its members.
Have a unique motto, ritual and creed to unite the members in sisterhood, brotherhood, or siblinghood.
Uphold common values such as academic success, leadership development, community service and friendship.
TIPS FOR FAMILIES • Check out local and national organization websites and social media for the organization(s) your student is interested in. • Know the financial costs. Determine who will pay and what limitations these expenses may impose. For many organizations, one-time national or international dues are paid during the first year, so expect the first year of membership to be the most expensive. • Encourage your student to attend leadership programs sponsored by the Office of the Dean of Students or other on-campus departments.
• Encourage your student to get involved and take advantage of the opportunities and resources on campus. • Know the names and phone numbers of the organization president, new member educator, big sister or big brother, organization advisor and house director (when applicable). • Expect to see many new t-shirts, photos and sorority or fraternity merchandise. • Be supportive of your student’s choice to join a sorority or fraternity. If you have questions, please contact SFL.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WHAT IS RECRUITMENT? RUSH? INTAKE? Recruitment, rush, or intake is a sorority/fraternity process with the intention of adding new members to a chapter. This process could include information sessions, social gatherings, or a get-to-know-you meal on or off campus. Some Greek-letter organizations host recruitment throughout the year, while others recruit during a specific time period each term/year. Any chapter activity that aims to add new members must be in compliance with organizational policies, institutional rules and state laws. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A NEW MEMBER? The new member period is a time for students to bond with other newcomers and active members while learning about the organization’s history and values, prior to being officially initiated into the organization. Many new member classes will attend weekly meetings, study together and plan activities as a group. Some chapters even elect new member officers and encourage leadership from the beginning. HOW WILL JOINING A SORORITY OR FRATERNITY AFFECT MY STUDENT ACADEMICALLY? All organizations have a GPA requirement to remain a member in good standing, so it’s common to see chapters organizing study hours, hosting study skills workshops and encouraging the use of faculty office hours. Some chapters offer scholarships and awards to celebrate the academic success of members and non-members. Sororities and fraternities regularly achieve GPAs that are at or above the average undergraduate GPA.
10
WHEN DO STUDENTS TYPICALLY JOIN? The majority of UT Austin students join during their first semester in college. However, some organizations require students to have a minimum GPA and credit hours before joining. All UT Austin students — including transfer students, sophomores, juniors and seniors — have the opportunity to join the sorority and fraternity community. WHICH SORORITY OR FRATERNITY IS THE BEST TO JOIN? There are more than 60 Greek-letter organizations on campus. Each organization provides unique experiences, values, service, philanthropy and leadership opportunities within the community. The “best” sorority/fraternity is a personal choice and should be based on where a student feels most comfortable. DO SORORITIES AND FRATERNITIES HAZE? Hazing is not tolerated at UT Austin and all students should feel safe joining and maintaining membership in any organization on campus. However, hazing can still take place in any student organization, including sororities and fraternities. As a student is exploring and examining the potential of joining a sorority or fraternity, we encourage them to look for organizations that treat all members with dignity and respect and align with their personal values through both word and action. Learn more on page 34.
INVOLVEMENT OPPORTUNITIES The mission of Sorority and Fraternity Life is to foster responsible leadership and personal development within the sorority and fraternity community through education, coaching and collaboration with individuals and organizations. We are committed to promoting a supportive environment that strengthens a sense of belonging and aligns members’ actions with their shared values, ensuring a holistic and enriching college experience. In addition to the many opportunities students have as members of their organization to engage in programs and learn from each other, our office compliments student development by offering dynamic leadership and educational programs, trainings and support for both chapter and council leaders.
CHAPTER COACHING One-on-one sessions between chapter presidents and SFL staff to discuss personal leadership, chapter operations and build relationships between student leaders and staff across council advising structures.
COMMUNITY STANDARDS PROGRAM Evaluates all chapters each term on series of expectations to remain in good standing. This includes attendance at educational events, roster management, educational programming and more.
CHAPTER PRESIDENT PROGRAMMING An event hosted each term to build community among all chapter presidents and the Office of the Dean of Students staff.
RISK MANAGEMENT SUMMIT An annual conference-style event for chapter and council leaders covering various safety topics designed to support and foster a safer community.
COUNCIL ADVISEMENT AND SUPPORT Just like a student government represents a student body, our councils provide governance for the sororities and/or fraternities that make up each of our five councils. SFL staff compliments the goals of these student-run councils and offer leadership skill building through one-on-one meetings with officers, hosting workshops for council communities, offering advice for programs and events and being available to advise throughout the academic year.
SORORITY AND FRATERNITY LIFE AWARDS Recognizes individuals and organizations for their outstanding service, philanthropy, scholarship and leadership annually. UT Austin staff across campus are invited to judge the award nominations.

Sorority and Fraternity Life at The University of Texas at Austin is made up of five governing councils and one Affiliate Council. Each council represents a unique group of chapters, each one a registered student organization. While each council has its own distinct foundation, all are united in their commitment to service, scholarship, leadership, and collaboration. Continue reading to explore what makes each council special.

AFFILIATE LEADERSHIP CIRCLE 20
Affiliate Leadership Circle (ALC) is comprised of registered student organizations that share the organization category of sororities and/or fraternities. During the expansion phase, an organization first connects with Sorority and Fraternity Life and applies to become an Affiliate Leadership Circle organization. Most, but not all, ALC organizations will eventually petition to join a governing council after establishing as an affiliate organization. Affiliate Leadership Circle organizations receive the resources and benefits associated with being an officially recognized SFL organization.

INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL 22
The Interfraternity Council (IFC) experience revolves around character, leadership, responsibility and philanthropy. As a collection of fraternities, IFC’s vision is to create a unified community of fraternity men who are leaders in academics and service. Many of the chapters in the IFC have long histories and each offers a unique experience. Some fraternities and traditions date back to 1883, when UT Austin first opened its doors. The IFC does not organize a formal recruitment for students interested in joining one of their member fraternities, therefore each fraternity follows its own schedule and establishes its own selection process. Some chapters begin recruitment in the summer while others wait until the fall and some recruit at the beginning of each term. Prospective students can sign up for the recruitment interest list at texasifc.com, but are encouraged to research each fraternity via their individual websites or social media accounts.

LATINO PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL 24
The Latino Pan-Hellenic Council (LPHC) is the governing body for the Latinx sororities and fraternities. The LPHC was established with the goal of promoting unity and positive collaboration within the Latinx sorority and fraternity community and with other fraternal organizations on campus. Participation in the LPHC and its associated sororities and fraternities is open to all students regardless of the students’ race or ethnicity. The first three weeks of the term are important for meeting chapters that are part of LPHC. During this time, many will host events, social activities and information sessions to give students an opportunity to get to know each chapter. Some LPHC organizations have restrictions on when students are eligible to join, so we encourage you to inquire about policies directly with chapter members or by visiting their websites. Find out more about LPHC on their website.

NATIONAL PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL 26
The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) is the governing body for the nine historically African American Greek-letter organizations often referred to as the “Divine Nine”. The purpose of NPHC is connected to a rich history to unify the historically Black and African American fraternities and sororities, by promoting community service, academics, leadership development and collaboration. Participation in the NPHC and its associated sororities and fraternities is open to all students regardless of the students’ race or ethnicity. All NPHC organizations have set national membership requirements that chapters must adhere to. This means that not every group will have an intake process every semester or academic year. To stay updated, we encourage you to explore membership of groups you are interested in by visiting their website and attending events on campus. If you’re interested in joining, it’s recommended that you communicate with a member of the organization directly. Additionally, interested students should ask chapters about any GPA, recommendation letter and community service/campus involvement requirements.

HAZING PREVENTION AND RISK REDUCTION WHAT IS HAZING?
RESPONSIBILITY
UT Austin defines hazing as any intentional, knowing, or reckless act, occurring on or off the campus of an educational institution, by one person alone or acting with others, directed against a person, for the purpose of pledging, being initiated into, affiliating with, holding office in, or maintaining membership in any organization. Behaviors that meet the definition of hazing vary, but by nature they endanger the mental or physical health or safety of a person. Not only is hazing prohibited at UT Austin, but it is also against the law in the state of Texas.
Sororities and fraternities follow high standards set by their institution, national organization and their alum advisors, especially when it comes to substance use safety and hazing prevention. SFL trains and advises chapters individually on safety and risk reduction topics annually. Many national organizations offer online training, workshops and national conferences to help members understand prevention and response that reflect their organization’s values. Additionally, all student organizations at UT Austin are required to complete the Safety Education Program each year. If you have concerns about a member’s safety, please contact the Office of the Dean of Students.
HOW TO REPORT INCIDENTS AND CONCERNS The safety and wellness of students is our priority. If you hear of incidents of hazing, alcohol abuse, or any rule violation, please report them to the Office of the Dean of Students. Incidents of sexual violence should be reported to the Title IX Office. Reports can be filed anonymously.
You can file through these resources: Office of the Dean of Students 512-471-5017 Behavior Concerns Advice Line (BCAL) 512-232-5050 Title IX Office 512-471-0419
