This event aims to provide new members an overview of the history and significance of the USC fraternal community, the four councils represented on campus, the Office of Fraternity & Sorority Life, and to encourage new members to consider personal responsibility with social engagement.
Every year, Greek Village opens to children from the university family and the greater Columbia community for trick-or-treating. Chapters put together carnival games such as face painting, cornhole, and more to entertain children.

This overnight retreat is designed to on-board new officers to their roles, to provide them context of the larger community incorporating all four councils, to provide an opportunity for them to begin developing relationships with their counterparts from other chapters, and to discuss challenges and opportunities facing the community.
This half-day conference provides small-group opportunities for chapter officers to engage with one another, share strategies, and receive training around topics relevant for their positions. Topics have included healthy team building, bystander intervention, crisis management, wellness wheel, high impact community involvement, and many more.
This program helps members learn about the history of different fraternal organizations and understand their own identities within their chapters and councils. It also teaches the importance of working together across different councils to appreciate diversity and collaborate effectively.
