Scholarship

Maintaining a high level of academic success is a tradition within the Stetson Greek community.

The Stetson Greek community offers many resources and programs to maintain high scholastic success. Some of the resources and programs available include:

• Scholarship chairs, chapter officers who work with the chapter and University to create a scholarship plan for its members

• Major matching: allows members sharing majors or classes to study together or tutor each other

• Incentive programs: members are recognized for academic achievement and scholastic effort

Service

Each semester members of the Stetson Greek community strive to advance Stetson University, the DeLand area, and its surrounding communities through service and philanthropy. Throughout the year, each individual chapter in the community sponsors a philanthropy or service week project that affords members the opportunity to give back to the community.

Leadership

The Stetson Greek community is an excellent place to gain the experience and knowledge necessary to develop strong leadership skills. The community is self-governing, giving student leaders the opportunity to shape policies and standards for their own organizations, as well as the larger fraternity and sorority community. Serving as an officer or committee chair in a chapter or governing council will help an individual develop a multitude of leadership skills not limited to conflict management, delegation, decision making, and effective communication skills.

Being a member of the Stetson Greek community often serves as a "gateway to involvement" in other areas of campus such as Student Government, clubs, organizations, and campus honorary societies. Members of the Stetson Greek community have historically held some of the highest leadership positions and honors on campus. Nationally, numerous chapters provide opportunities for members to attend regional and national leadership training conferences.

Community

Brotherhood and Sisterhood are bonds of unity and enduring friendship. By becoming a member of the Stetson Greek community, you will experience an easier transition from high school to college and gain a "home away from home." You will meet other students with diverse backgrounds, similar interests, and new perspectives during some of the brotherhood and sisterhood activities such as chapter retreats, intramurals, socials and date functions.
