Fraternity and Sorority Life

Fraternity and sorority membership provides opportunities for personal growth, intellectual development, and social connection throughout college and beyond. Students who become part of our community will be exposed to a well-rounded, co-curricular experience. Membership in one of our 26 organizations offers opportunities that will enhance the student experience. 

 

 

Citizenship. Every year, our chapters raise thousands of dollars and perform hundreds of hours of community service that benefit local and national philanthropic organizations.

Leadership. Members of fraternities and sororities can be found leading organizations all over campus. They are involved in the classroom, in student organizations, and the greater Hattiesburg community.

Scholarship. The Southern Miss fraternity and sorority community consistently maintains a higher cumulative GPA than their unaffiliated undergraduate counterparts. 

Fellowship. Membership in one of our organizations offers the opportunity for connection and belonging. We believe that fraternity and sorority membership can make a large campus feel a little smaller.
