Today, more than 20 single-sex and coed Greek organizations have chapters on campus, and most are affiliated with a national organization. Students have an opportunity to familiarize themselves with various chapters on campus during each organization's rush program. During rush each fraternity and sorority hosts a variety of events, after which it invites prospective members to pledge. Rush is open to every full-time undergraduate student in all divisions of the University. Some chapters choose new members each semester, while others hold rush only once a year.
Many Greek chapters have their own houses within several blocks of the campus.
Members may choose to live in their fraternity or sorority house after their first academic year. It consists of all organization presidents plus two delegates from each chapter. The IGC recognizes new chapters, organizes inter-Greek programs, and ensures cooperation among various chapters. Its judicial board hears disciplinary matters that bear on the conduct of organizations. The Office of Student Activities coordinates reservations for all outdoor spaces for all schools and organizations on the Morningside campus.
