Arkansas State University - ASU Overview

  About Greek Life at ASU

Jonesboro is a mid-size college town in northeast Arkansas, and Arkansas State University has a Greek system that's genuinely woven into campus social life. ASU sits in the Sun Belt Conference and draws a mostly regional student body, which means Greek life here has that tight-knit, everybody-knows-everybody feel you tend to find at schools like this.

The system is organized across multiple councils. The Interfraternity Council covers the traditional men's fraternities, and Panhellenic oversees the women's sororities. The National Pan-Hellenic Council is also active on campus, representing the historically Black fraternities and sororities — the Divine Nine organizations with chapters here include Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma, Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sigma Gamma Rho, and Zeta Phi Beta. That's a solid NPHC presence for a school this size.

On the IFC and Panhellenic side, you've got familiar national names like Sigma Chi, Pi Kappa Alpha, Kappa Alpha Order, Lambda Chi Alpha, Kappa Sigma, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Alpha Tau Omega, and Alpha Gamma Rho on the fraternity side, and sororities including Chi Omega, Zeta Tau Alpha, Alpha Omicron Pi, Kappa Delta, Alpha Gamma Delta, and Delta Zeta. Formal recruitment for Panhellenic chapters typically runs in the fall, while IFC chapters do both formal and informal recruitment throughout the year.

Greek chapters at ASU are pretty visible on campus, especially around homecoming and during football season. Philanthropy events and fundraisers pop up regularly throughout the fall and spring semesters, and Greek organizations tend to be active in student government and campus leadership as well. Housing varies by chapter — some have dedicated houses or chapter facilities, while others operate without them, which is pretty common at schools this size.

Overall, this is a system where Greek life is a real part of campus culture without completely dominating it. There are enough chapters across enough councils that students from different backgrounds can find a fit.
