Dear PNMs,

Nervous for recruitment? We've been in your shoes! The weeks leading up to recruitment can seem daunting and overwhelming, there's so much to learn and take note of. We get it, Greek Life is a lot and we're here for you!

The Basics

Let's start with the basics. There are 14 Panhellenic sororities at Michigan State. Each sorority has its own house, philanthropy, colors, symbol, values and more! Each chapter hosts their own annual philanthropy events to raise money for their cause. Each sorority also holds sisterhood events throughout the school year to bond with your sisters! Take a look at the Philanthropy section of our blog website or our social media to learn more about DG's philanthropy!
