Carthage College - CC Overview

  About Greek Life at CC

Carthage College is a small liberal arts school sitting right on the shore of Lake Michigan in Kenosha, Wisconsin — and its Greek system reflects that intimate campus feel. There are a handful of fraternities and sororities active on campus, operating under IFC, Panhellenic, and NPHC. It's a smaller Greek community overall, which means chapters tend to know each other well and there's less of the large-scale competitive rush culture you'd see at a big state school.

The fraternities on campus include Delta Upsilon, Phi Kappa Sigma, and Tau Kappa Epsilon, and the sorority side has Alpha Chi Omega, Chi Omega, and Delta Sigma Theta — with DST representing the NPHC presence on campus. That's a pretty compact lineup, so don't expect the sprawling Greek Row setup you'd see at a Big Ten school. Carthage doesn't have dedicated chapter houses in the traditional sense, which shapes how organizations operate and socialize — it's more event-driven than house-party driven.

Recruitment here is a lot more low-key than what you might picture from movies or bigger universities. Because the school itself is smaller, rush tends to be a more personal process. You're getting to know actual members, not just attending massive events where you're one face in a crowd of hundreds. Chapters here are tight-knit by necessity as much as by choice.

Greek life is part of the social scene at Carthage, though it shares space with a lot of other campus organizations and activities. The lakeshore setting and the college's strong arts and athletics programs mean students have plenty of other outlets. Greek organizations tend to stay active through philanthropy events, community service, and campus programming, which keeps them visible even on a campus where not everyone goes Greek.
