Fraternities & Sororities
Fraternity & Sorority Life on campus offers a variety of ways to meet new people, become active on campus, and serve the campus and greater community. Fraternities and Sororities were founded on the basis of leadership, scholarship, service, and sisterhood/brotherhood. Our community provides a great balance of social networking, community service, and personal development possibilities.
At Old Westbury, we offer a diverse mix of fraternities and sororities with the hopes that everyone who wants to join finds one that closely matches his or her values and personality. While our organizations support different philanthropies and causes, and have different histories and traditions, all of them exist to make men and women better through fostering the ideals of unity, respect, scholarship, service and leadership.
Expansion
After much thought and assessment of our current Fraternity & Sorority Community, the Center for Student Leadership & Involvement is not currently open to conversations regarding expansion. We hope to revisit expansion requests for the 2024-2025 academic year soon!
