FAMILY & FRIENDS


Going Greek at UMD is an important decision for your student and one that you need to be comfortable with as well. Your student will be part of a self-governing community that provides a multitude of opportunities for both personal and professional development, all of which will help lead your student to a bright and successful future. 

Here are a few suggestions to help with your student's fraternity/sorority experience: 
  • Allow your student to make their own decision about which Greek organization is right for them. 
  • Be happy and supportive of their Greek-lettered organization choice. 
  • Learn as much as you can about Greek Life and the membership experience. 
  • Know the name and contact information for the chapter president, new member educator and chapter advisor. 
  • If you are providing financial assistance, ask for details about the financial aspect of membership. ​
  • Encourage your student to attend programs sponsored by their new chapter. 
  • Stay in touch with phone calls, emails and text messages. 
  • Advocate for your student to take advantage of the University's many resources​​
