Events and Programs

Each year FSL, in collaboration with the Greek Program Board, holds programs such as Meet Fraternity and Sorority Life, Greek Week/Day, and more to develop and support a sense of community and belonging throughout our membership. The events additionally educate non-affiliated students on the benefits and importance of Fraternity and Sorority life as part of their co-curricular experience on campus.

Chapter Events

Our chapters are hosting meaningful, educative, and impactful events every week for their membership and the greater campus community.

Greek Program Board

The Greek Programming Board (GPB) at George Washington University is dedicated to building a strong and vibrant Greek community by fostering collaboration and engagement among members and chapters. By establishing and maintaining a positive presence and reputation on campus, the board aims to support the growth and success of Greek life at GW. Through member-developed and member-led programs, the board creates meaningful opportunities for personal growth, relationship-building, and lasting memories that contribute to member retention and satisfaction. Grounded in the philosophy of education through engagement, the board emphasizes experiential learning and collaborative, transformative leadership to inspire impactful connections and experiences within the Greek community.

Members interested in joining GPB are always encouraged to email the GPB staff advisor, E'Quince Smith at etsmithgwu [dot] edu (etsmith[at]gwu[dot]edu) to learn more.

Leadership Development

Leadership development is weaved throughout many facets of the Fraternity and Sorority Life experience. Every semester we hold officer and new member retreats where newer and seasoned members of our community think critically about how they model leadership and develop their own leadership using experiences, shortcomings, and lessons learned. We focus on team-building activities, getting to know the communities that makeup Fraternity and Sorority Life, developing leadership skills, setting goals for the year, and so much more! We also host monthly community chapter events focusing on one of the priority development areas that the Fraternity and Sorority Life team has set for the year.
