学者

学者 are an important aspect of our fraternal community. By placing a strong emphasis on academics, we are able to encourage ourselves and others in our campus community to strive for better grades. We are able to achieve this through the use of tutoring and mentoring programs, 举办学习之夜, and various other academic opportunities.  结果是, our members are more likely to be involved in academic honor societies on campus and achieve higher grades. 

服务与慈善

Our fraternal community prides itself on our commitment to making our community a better place through volunteering our time and by raising money.  Each organization and each member is specifically involved in 社区服务 and philanthropic pursuits.  By donating thousands of volunteer hours and raising thousands of dollars each year, we join together with our brothers and sisters across the country to make the largest network of volunteers in the country.  Our members dedicate hard work and time to several causes, 包括对抗癌症, 帮助无家可归者, 帮助退伍军人, 重建我们的社区, 举几个例子.

领导

While we encourage team spirit and shared values, we also stress the importance of the individual to succeed. Members of the fraternal community are not only leaders within their individual organizations, but also on campus through participation in organizations such as 校园活动委员会 and the Lindenwood 学生会 Association, 举几个例子. Becoming a member of a fraternity or sorority is the easiest way to get involved on campus and enhance your college experience outside of the classroom. By also providing opportunities for local and regional leadership, 澳门威尼斯人平台官网 fraternal students are often involved with several student organizations on campus. Their participation allows them to learn a variety of skills and expertise while keeping up with academic and professional endeavors.

Social

As affiliated men and women, we understand that the first priority of any student is academics.  However, we do understand that the collegiate experience also exists outside of the classroom.  Social and recreational activities provide students with opportunities to meet a variety of people and cultivate life-long relationships.  正式场合等活动, 合作慈善活动, 目前一周, and group participation in campus programs provide our men and women with needed time to socialize and relax after classes.
