FRATERNITIES TODAY:
THE RELEVANCY TO COLLEGE STUDENTS IN 2023
Brothers are more connected to
their local communities, and they
spend more time volunteering
than nonaffiliated students.
RESEARCH
PROVES OUR
MISSION IS
IMPORTANT
Fraternities empower
students and provide
a strong support system.
When members seek
help, they are twice as
likely to turn to a brother
than anyone else.
Members experience greater
gains in learning and
graduate at higher rates
than their peers.
83% of members say their
confidence in their leadership
skills increased because of
their membership.
Members are more
academically engaged
than their peers.
C
ompounded by the persistent negative news stories
surrounding fraternities and sororities, it is fair to ask
the question, "Are Greek organizations as relevant today
as they were in my generation?" Contrary to these news
stories, fraternities foster positive mental health, serve as
a success accelerator for students, and inspire tremendous
loyalty and connection to their college experience.
Perhaps the biggest attribute of a fraternity is that
it teaches us values one simply cannot learn in a
classroom. By investing in the environment our
chapter will return to, we can ensure the Sigma Chi
house remains a space for brothers to become the
greatest version of themselves.
Members are 3x more likely
to have an internship
in college than their peers.
50% of members say their fraternity
experience helped them get a job
after college.
