One of the easiest ways to get involved in the IU Southeast community is to explore our Greek Life. Not all of your undergraduate education can be learned in a classroom or textbook. There are certain lessons and skills you will learn through shared experiences and relationships. Your sorority will be able to help prepare you for the wonderful world that awaits inside and outside of the university community. You will make lifelong friendships that will influence your present and future.
IU Southeast's sororities emphasize the personal attributes that will make you a solid, well-rounded student and citizen. They stress academic excellence and provide support systems to make you a stronger student and resilient individual. The Greek community at IU Southeast focuses on service, diversity, and leadership development. It's no wonder that IU Southeast's Panhellenic community is such an important component in our educational community. Take advantage of the opportunity to join IU Southeast's Greek Life! Explore your options because opportunities such as this only come around once in a lifetime! |

Potential new members are encouraged to register as early as possible to ensure a connection with their Gamma Chi and other women in their group. Due to the recent COVID-19 epidemic, we have lowered our registration fee to only $15. This will stay a flat rate throughout the summer, up until registration weekend.

What: The second round marks the beginning of the invitational rounds, and you may attend one to three events for this round.

Today you will learn about each of the sororities' national and local philanthropies. Each of the chapters will host events every year to support their causes and you will be able to learn more about these opportunities. You can expect to spend 45 minutes with each chapter. |

Preference Round
August 30th, 2020 |
Wear: Cocktail attire (dress, skirt, dress pants, etc.)
What: Preference is the last day of recruitment events. A scheduled invitation to a preference party indicates a chapter's strong interest in you as a future member. You may attend one or two events on this day for one hour each. Throughout the preference round, a sorority's presentation will reflect the values and ideals held in esteem by its members. Listen carefully to what the women say--they are revealing the strongest characteristics of their chapter to you today. Preference events have a more serious tone. Therefore, you may feel more comfortable in a dress you would wear to a reception or a more formal setting. |

Bid Day
August 31st, 2020 |
Wear: Casual (you should wear a cami under your shirt, as you will be getting a new t-shirt to wear)
