GreekRank values the following categories: Looks, Popularity, Classiness, Campus Involvement, Social Life, Sisterhood. A well-balanced sorority chapter should be equally succeeding in all these categories.

Here’s who we strongly feel deserves to be on the list.... Read more

There at 26 Panhellenic sorority members. Each of them have an official unique color or color combination. After asking myself “which sorority has the best colors”, I realized that these preferences would be very subjective. No surprise there. Yet, what I was able to do is list the first thing that comes to mind when I look at a sororities colors.... Read more

You have made one of the biggest decisions of your life to go to college. Congratulations! However, that’s not the only decision that you’ll have to make when it comes to college life. Another important decision that you’ll probably make is the decision to go Greek in college. Greek life has lots of benefits to offer to its members – opportunities to build a network, social/community activities to participate in, a strong brotherhood bond to maintain, and many more!  However, one of the biggest challenges college guys face at the beginning of their Greek life is choosing the right fraternity for themselves....

Every fraternity house has one. A shared drive, a binder on a shelf, a folder in someone's email chain - years of old exams, professor-specific notes, highlighted study guides passed down like they're sacred texts. And the weird thing is, almost nobody talks about it openly. Not the brothers who use it, not the advisors who probably know it exists, not the university offices that would rather look the other way. The test bank is one of Greek life's open secrets, and I think it's time somebody actually said something real about it. ... Read more

Onward State put together a running compilation of every Greek life scandal at Penn State, and honestly, reading through it feels like scrolling through a highlight reel that nobody asked for. It's long. It's messy. And if you've spent any time inside a chapter, some of it is going to make you uncomfortable in a very specific, recognizable way. ... Read more

The event still happened. It was fine. But fine isn't what anyone was going for. ... Read more

Every few years, a wave of high-profile assault cases hits the news cycle and suddenly everyone's got an opinion about whether fraternities should exist at all. The ABC News story making rounds right now is the latest version of that conversation - calls to shut down frat houses entirely as public anger over rape cases grows louder. I've heard this argument before. I've sat in Panhellenic council meetings where the exact same pressure was bleeding over into how we handled our own policies, our own relationships with IFC chapters, our own event approval processes. And I'll say what I said then: closing houses doesn't close the problem. ... Read more
