GREEK LIFE AT BARUCH COLLEGE

BEFORE I JOIN, WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
Joining a fraternity/sorority is a decision that should not be taken lightly. There are many responsibilites that come along with membership in a Greek Lettered Organization (GLO). Be sure to ask questions about any requirements that an organization may have, not only for members, but for potential members as well.

HOW DO I DECIDE?
The GLOs on Baruch’s campus are as diverse as the campus’ undergraduate body. This diverstiy allows for students to seek out an organization that suits their needs best. Some organizations have a special focus on athletics, community service, or culture. Feel free to look at every organization recognized by Baruch College and make a choice based on your needs.

MEMBESHIP INTAKE
Membership intake for each organization on Baruch’s campus is different. Each organization has a tailored way of bringing in new members that can best be explained by current undergraduate membership. If you’re interested in finding out more about membership in these organizations attending events like “Meet the Greeks” hosted by the Baruch College Inter-Greek Council might help. Additionally each organization on campus hosts different events to educate potential members about their organizations (rush events, informationals, etc.). Keep an eye open for promotion of these events.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I BECOME A NEW MEMBER?
There are a wealth of opportunities that will become available to you as a member of a GLO at Baruch. Membership in any of the organizations on campus will increase your opportunities to network with successful alumni, take an active role in the campus community, excel academically, and engage you in activities off-campus. Your involvement with a GLO at Baruch will also allow you to mature as a leader which will serve its purpose well past your undergraduate experience. Be prepared to enhance your experience as an undergraduate as well as a graduate of Baruch College.
