An Overview on Greek Life at UNK!

While each of our 12 Greek Organizations at UNK vary in mottos, colors, chapter events and charitable efforts ~ all of them share what we call our 4 Core Values which include:
Scholarship ~ Leadership ~ Service ~ Friendship
- Friendship is the and sorority life, but it doesn't end there. Greeks at UNK boast higher grade point averages than the average undergraduate student's GPA (check out our scholarship page for current stats) and the UNK Greeks are leaders in almost all of the 150 student organizations on campus. Each Greek Organization actively participates in the intramurals sports program, UNK athletics, and serving the Kearney community. Over $60,000 has been raised each year for local and national charities in addition to over 10,000 hours of hands-on service.
- Fraternity and sorority membership offers a more well-rounded college experience. UNK's Greek community represents 500 diversified men and women belonging to 12 different fraternities and sororities. Our Greek community provides its members with opportunities for growth and excellence in academic, leadership, service learning, and social opportunities.
- UNK fraternity and sorority members are most often leaders in all areas of campus life. Infact at UNK, 16 of 17 Student Diplomats are Greek, 10 of 17of the Chancellor's Ambassadors are Greek, there are 9 of 15 Greek Student Senators and the Vice President of Student Senate is also a Fraternity President, countless Greeks have been tapped for Mortar Board, 6 of 8 Summer Advising Enrollment Leaders are Greek, and the 2009 Homecoming King and Queen are you guessed it both ~ UNK Greeks!
