Approximately 4,000 students comprise 86 chapters of fraternities and sororities at Penn State, making it one of the largest Greek systems in the nation. With Greek life a significant factor in the lives of many students, faculty and alumni, the Greek Pride steering committee -- composed of 23 students, administrators and Greek advisers and current leaders within the Greek community -- hopes to re-engage the core values within each chapter and strengthen relationships with stakeholders across the community.
