Therefore, schoolwork comes first. Each sorority has GPA requirements, so members may strive to keep their grades up. Some sororities hold study hours, where members can get together to work and study. Being part of the Greek community is a positive experience. It helps to make a sometimes overwhelmingly large, urban campus into a smaller, more friendly place.
Sororities are a tight-knit group of women, a family away from home.
Sisterhood is about finding support, advice or a smile. We understand that not everyone is going to agree with the Greek life. But, we urge you to learn the facts, and what sororities and fraternities are really about before judging them. Northeastern s Greek community is relatively small, and is working hard to reach positive goals, and to build a better Greek image. We hope that The NU News and NU Student Body will support us in our efforts to turn around the negative perception of Greek life, because there are so many beneficial aspects to it.
