Fraternity & Sorority Life
A tradition of service, scholarship, and campus involvement mark the histories of fraternity and sorority life at Clayton State.
Our Greek-letter organizations are built on lifelong sisterhood/brotherhood, matched with a commitment to being active student leaders through volunteering, campus involvement, academic excellence, personal development, and social engagement.
Build Character through Greek Life
Scholarship
The promotion of intellectual growth and academic excellence through the recruitment and selection of quality students, scholastic programming, educational support, and recognition opportunities.
The majority of the Clayton State Greek-letter community maintains a higher Grade Point Average than the overall campus population.
Leadership
The development of styles and models of leadership through a self-governing council (Fraternity & Sorority Council), cross collaboration opportunities, workshops, and ethical decision-making.
Many members of Clayton State Greek-letter organizations hold leadership positions in other student organizations including Student Government Association, and Campus Events Council
Service and Philanthropy
Encouraging members to become civically involved and actively engaged in the betterment of the campus community, local community, and beyond.
All Clayton State Greek-letter organizations volunteer in both local and national programs including voter registration drives, AIDS Walk Atlanta, Special Olympics, and the March of Dimes.
Brotherhood/Sisterhood
Joining a Greek-letter organization is a commitment that connects you to a network of brothers and sisters bonded by common goals and the founding principles of that organization.
Members of Greek-letter organizations develop a special bond that lasts beyond their college years. Nurtured by alumni activities and graduate chapters, members are provided networking opportunities and a lifetime of camaraderie.
