Fall Greek Student Recruitment Kicks off at Ferris, Sept. 12
BIG RAPIDS, Mich. Making friends, raising awareness and becoming a part of a
community is what Greek Life is about at Ferris State University.

At the beginning of fall and spring semesters, Panhellenic Council, Interfraternity
Council (IFC), and the Black Greek Council (BGC) recruit and accept new
members into their Greek organizations. While these are all Greek organizations,
their recruitment processes differ.

Matthew Jones, the Greek Life Coordinator, said that this years recruitment
already looks to be off to a great start.

Below are details Jones was able to provide on how each Greek organization
goes about recruitment.

Panhellenic Council will host fall formal recruitment Sept. 16 18 in the
business building on Ferriss campus. Here you have the opportunity to
meet all five social sororities and two professional sororities. Sign up
online by visiting the Ferris State University Panhellenic Council
Facebook. The registration cost is $10.
IFC runs fall recruitment Sept. 1223, with the formal day of recruitment
on Sept. 17 in the University Center. At formal recruitment you will be
able to visit all the fraternity organizations.
BGC does not have a specific time or date that they will be recruiting. If
you are interested in joining, contact the Greek Life Center for more
information.

We are a community founded on values, and we challenge each other to live by
those values, Jones said. The Greek experience can be a life changing
experience when done well. It takes great new members to keep our
organizations going.

For more information regarding Greek recruitment contact the Greek Life Center
located in the CLACS office.
