Greek Life provides students with opportunities for leadership and problem-solving
skills that are necessary in today’s society. Members can participate as a chapter
officer or as a member of one of the committees that each chapter maintains. There
are also opportunities for members to become actively involved in Student Government,
Interfraternity Council, Panhellenic Council, and other chartered student organizations.
In addition, there are over 60 registered student organizations at WC, all providing
leadership opportunities to Greeks. Fraternities and sororities encourage active participation
in leadership experiences. Members find this to be an integral part of a well-rounded
education.
