Academic success is stressed from all chapters from pledging to graduation. Chapman University also holds a policy of a G.P.A. of 2.0 or a above to be involved in organizations. Greek letter organizations have been self-sufficient since their inception. Fraternities and sororities support themselves, through dues and membership fees and a one-time initiation fee. While going through recruitment students will learn of these fees.
Greek organizations are families with their own community that runs on a democracy.
New members learn to live and work within this community. In this way, students learn responsibility and leadership skills needed beyond the college years. Greeks are involved and are often the most influential leaders on campus. The Greek system at Chapman University has enriched my college experience in many ways. Many doors have been opened for both leadership and academic success.
