The first step in figuring out how to join, is to figure out which council you are interested in joining. We recommend first taking time to learn about our three governing student bodies.

• Subsequent semester dues: $500 - $700

We believe that membership in fraternities and sororities offers the opportunity to make a large campus feel a little smaller. Membership in one of our organizations will give students:

• the opportunity to make new friends.
• a greater sense of belonging.
• an accountability structure to help them be academically successful.
• an avenue to connect to philanthropic and service organizations.
• a greater affinity for Southern Miss.

You may worry that the extra social events and responsibilities of being in a chapter may take away time devoted to academics. Being a member is a time commitment, and one of the core values of membership is scholastic excellence.

All fraternities and sororities require a minimum grade point average that members must maintain to join and remain a member. Organizations often offer access to academic resources and provide accountability for their members. The fraternity and sorority community values the importance of a quality education and academic excellence is a priority. Fraternity and Sorority Life chapter grade reports can be found here. 

Fraternity and Sorority Life supports the Chapter members and leaders engage in annual anti-hazing education through the University and their inter/national organizations. Members are encouraged to contribute to our community of high ideals and report any behavior antithetical to those ideals.

Like members of other student organizations, some may choose to consume alcohol. Also like members of other student organizations, some choose not to drink. Fraternities and sororities at Southern Miss are supported by both their inter/national organizations and the University to ensure they are making safe, responsible, and legal decisions pertaining to alcohol use. Fraternity and sorority membership offers an added layer of support in decision-making throughout college to which many unaffiliated students don't have.

欧美AV values an inclusive community that embraces the diversity of people and ideas, a campus culture characterized by warmth and mutually-supportive connections among students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

The Southern Miss Anti-Discrimination Policy states that "all persons have equal access to educational, programmatic and employment opportunities without regard to age, sex, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy, gender identity, genetic information, religion, race, color, national origin, and/or veteran status pursuant to applicable state and federal law." 

Fraternity and Sorority Life is committed to supporting those institutional values. Many chapters and councils offer programming that encourages the exploration of individual identities and the ways in which people interact with each other. Although individual chapters ultimately have the right to control their membership, they are supported in their efforts to be inclusive, welcoming organizations.
