More than 6,300 UofSC students are a part of fraternity and sorority life — a community
that was founded on the values of scholarship, leadership, friendship and service.
More Than Meets the Eye
While fraternities and sororities are known as a great way to meet people and foster
new relationships, the value of our community extends beyond social interaction.
1,091 members earned a 4.0 GPA during the Fall 2019 semester; that’s around 16% of
our fraternal community!
In the 2019 calendar year, UofSC fraternity and sorority members completed nearly
130,000 hours of community service and donated almost $1,050,000 to philanthropic
partners.
Our chapters participate in a number of leadership programs, including an emerging
leaders course, a Men's and Women's Leadership Conference, and officer-based training!

Since Greek Village was first developed, there has been rapid growth in the University
of South Carolina’s Greek community. As a result, parking issues near Greek Village
have arisen during mandatory meal periods required by the organizations. To address
these concerns, the university’s Board of Trustees Building and Grounds Committee
considered a plan on Friday, Sept. 27 to make 800 parking spaces available by utilizing
a number of surface parking options located immediately adjacent to Greek Village.
These spaces would be exclusively for the use of fraternity and sorority members during
meal periods.
This solution would cost significantly less than an older proposal to construct a
multi-level parking deck and delivers convenient parking options that more quickly
meet the needs of the Greek community.
Note : the project is pending final approval from the Building and Grounds Committee and
full Board of Trustees, which is expected to consider the plan during its Oct. 11
meeting.
