Greek Life

JWU’s Providence Campus currently offers membership in 20 nationally or internationally affiliated fraternities and sororities.

Joining the Greek community is a great way for you to develop socially, intellectually and professionally within a single organization.

While this commitment can be a lot of fun, it also requires work and dedication. You'll be challenged to push yourself, honing your leadership skills as well as your cooperative spirit. At the same time, you'll be supported by a close-knit social network of your Greek peers.

Fraternities and sororities participate in social events campuswide, such as Family Weekend, Greek Week, themed socials with other Greek organizations as well as dinner dances, barbecues, spring formals and award banquets.

Being a member of a Greek organization means always being ready to lend a hand. Emphasizing community outreach as much as high scholastic achievement, activities include peer tutoring and counseling; special scholarships and awards; and chapter study hours.

In addition, Greek organizations collectively sponsor many philanthropic events throughout the year.

The following fraternities and sororities are supported by and follow guidelines and regulations established by the university.

If you do not see the name of a particular organization on either of these lists, you should not consider membership in that organization. Students face possible disciplinary action for joining an unrecognized organization. Educate yourself about a group’s affiliations before making a decision.
