When students join a Greek letter fraternity or sorority at Wright State University, a life-long commitment of friendship, service, leadership, and academic achievement is made. Students who participate in fraternity or sorority life perform hundreds of hours of services to the community and contribute thousands of dollars to charitable organizations. Chapters also sponsor social and educational programs and participate in major events at the university.

Membership in sororities and fraternities is open to all interested and academically eligible students. Coordination among the chapters is provided through the Fraternity & Sorority Governing Council (FSGC), the InterFraternity Council (IFC), the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), and the Panhellenic Council (NPC).

NPC sororities conduct informal fall semester recruitment and open continuous bidding throughout the rest of the year. NPHC and IFC seek new members throughout the academic year.

For Greek students who achieve academic excellence, membership is offered in the Order of Omega, a national honorary organization.

Media opportunities on campus include a radio station and a newspaper. All students are eligible for participation and are encouraged to talk to the appropriate editor or general manager to become involved.
