Welcome to Greek Life at MU!"These letters don't make me better than you; these letters make me better than I used to be."
Greek Life at Methodist University provides the opportunity for students to participate in a unique experience. Fraternities and sororities have a long standing tradition of the four Greek Pillars- community service, excellence in scholarship, leadership development, and sisterhood/brotherhood.
The Methodist Greek Life program is dedicated to upholding the traditions of fraternal organizations with the goal of continuing the expansion process to form new colonies over the next couple of years.
