This is an important element of our mission as a residential college. This diversity is valuable and must be preserved at the same time as we make salutary advances in Greek life. Sororities, I believe, have found a role in the general community and are essentially vitally thriving organizations. A few fraternities, on the other hand, seem challenged to achieve an appropriate level of engagement and contribution that meets contemporary expectations for student longevity at responsible colleges and universities. I am heartened, however, to see several fraternities already taking concrete steps with their alumni brothers to advance constructively their position at the College.
Greek life has a long tradition at Dickinson.
I welcome everyone, including both Greek and independent alumni, to share their reflections on the ideas contained in the Greek Life Action Group's recommendations. Thank you in advance for your engagement with the College and the issues we face.
