Why Should I Join?

Choosing to join a fraternity or sorority is more than a social decision—it’s an investment in your personal, academic, and professional future. Members of Widener’s Fraternity & Sorority Life community gain access to experiences, mentorship, and opportunities that help shape who they are long after graduation.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

📚 Academic Support & Achievement

Fraternities and sororities are committed to creating a culture of academic excellence. Through structured study hours, peer support, scholarships, and academic accountability programs, you’ll be surrounded by members who encourage you to do your best and celebrate your achievements.

🎓 Leadership Development

From holding a chapter role to representing Widener at regional and national conferences, FSL offers invaluable leadership experiences. Members build skills in communication, collaboration, conflict resolution, time management, and strategic planning—skills that translate to every future career path.

❤️ Service & Purpose

Giving back is central to fraternity and sorority values. Chapters support national philanthropic partners, participate in local service initiatives, and host charitable events that make a meaningful difference. You’ll join a community committed to improving the world—one project, fundraiser, and act of service at a time.

🤝 Lifelong Community & Networking

Membership extends well beyond your years at Widener. Fraternity and sorority alumni networks connect members to internships, jobs, and mentorship opportunities across the country. You’ll form meaningful friendships, build a professional network, and join a lifelong community that celebrates your growth and accomplishments.

Joining fraternity and sorority life means unlocking your potential, building relationships that last, and becoming part of something bigger than yourself. If you’re looking for connection, leadership, purpose, and pride—this is where your journey can begin.
