Meet the Panhellenic Council

Picture
Western Sororities is the Western University chapter of the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), which has worked since 1902 to improve and promote the sorority experience.

We are a student run body, and together we make important decisions about sorority issues and events on our campus. We represent the five organizations that have chapters on our campus: Alpha Gamma Delta, Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha Phi, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Pi Beta Phi. We provide community-wide programming including philanthropic initiatives. Most importantly, we host Formal Recruitment in the fall allowing individuals who are interested in the Greek community to find their home away from home. Get to know each of us by reading a bit about what each position consists of below!
