Joining a Greek chapter usually increases a student's chance for academic success.
Most chapters have strong academic programs which help foster as well as reward academic success.
Many chapters employ study periods, test aids, tutoring, and pairing of members to study together. Many students, both Greek and non-Greek, choose to abstain from using alcohol and find their college experience just as enjoyable. The University of Florida Greek system has a strict alcohol policy which regulates the consumption of alcohol by members. Every fraternity and sorority educates its new members on these alcohol policies as well as on related responsibility issues. Fraternities and sororities offer lifelong social benefits that prove invaluable.
