Title: Greek System alive at Valpo?
Post by: usc4valpo on July 30, 2015, 08:08:15 PM
Based on the postings, has the Greek system at Valpo taken a dive recently? I know in the 80's it was pretty strong, and I think it dropped some in the 90's. What percentage of students are in frats and sororities?

I'm not sure the percentage but the numbers of students involved has been on the rise over the last few years. You've just seen some orgs that have been struggling have their "last gasps" right around the same time. We're still sitting at 9 fraternities and the sorority numbers are slowly on the rebound. Building houses will help as the housing situation was starting to be a drag on membership, especially with the new sophomore dorms being built.
