The
National Pan-Hellenic Council is the governing body for
the historically African American
Greek-letter organizations represented
on campus. The council coordinates
programs and activities for the member
chapters and is comprised of delegates
from each of the organizations. The
purpose is to maintain high
positive standards for its member
organizations and to ensure the
perpetuation of the responsibility and
privilege of engaging in appropriate
service to the African American
Community at UM as well as in the larger
community.
Membership Intake
is the process of selection,
education, and initiating new
members into chapter. The
process begins with an informational
meeting which can be held in
the Spring or Fall. Most of these
informational meetings are
advertised before the meeting
through flyers around campus and by
word of mouth from members.
Undergraduate
students who wish to affiliate with
chapters must meet specific
membership qualifications. Specific
requirements vary by organization.
These minimum standards include:
academic achievement (GPA is set by
the national organization and/or
UM), community service, good
character, must be enrolled as a
full time student, and must have
earned at least 12 semester hours. Some groups may require the
completion of more hours but 12 is
the minimum.
