Chapter Housing Policy

Each fraternal organization that opts to reside in a university-owned residential facility must appoint a designated House Manager that will serve as a member of the organization’s Executive Board and work jointly with the organization’s President, the Office of Student Engagement, and the Office of Residence Life to ensure that all chapter and housing policies are followed.

The President or designated House Manager of each organization is required to live in the assigned residence hall. A Greek-letter organization must maintain at least 80% occupancy of its designated housing facility to remain in good standing with Widener University. If an organization can fill the housing facility to 100% capacity, then every attempt should be made to do so. Occupants residing in the housing facility should consist of initiated chapter members or approved non-affiliated students.

For more information regarding housing for fraternities and sororities, see the “Student Living/Residental Student Handbook” section.
