Fraternity and Sorority Life

Foster Courage in Life and Learning

Over 150 years ago, Fraternity & Sorority Life at UW-Madison was founded to instill the values of brotherhood and sisterhood, leadership, scholarship, service, and philanthropy in our students. UW-Madison FSL is home to over 4,000 students and nearly 60 chapters, each associated with one of four councils: Interfraternity Council (IFC), Multicultural Greek Council (MGC), National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), and Panhellenic Association (PHA).

Our members are leaders in the classroom and community. We contribute to campus and the surrounding communities by creating opportunities to support and participate in philanthropic and service-oriented activities and events; offering educational and personal development programs; providing a variety of ways to engage in leadership development; and by supporting the academic mission of the institution through research, scholarships, and a strong commitment to academic excellence.

You can help us foster courage in life and learning with a gift to the Fraternity and Sorority Life Fund. Your support ensures that future generations of students can benefit from the rich traditions and values that have shaped our community for over a century.

Divine Nine Garden Plaza 

 

In Fall 2020, we launched the Divine Nine Campus Recognition Fund to further the visibility and access of the nine National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) chapters – The Divine Nine – on campus. 

Since 1946, the NPHC has been and continues to be a cornerstone for the survival of communities of color at UW-Madison through campus leadership, community investment, academic achievement, and advocacy. However, decades of contributing to campus while fighting discrimination and racism still left no physical representation of these groups until the Divine Nine Plaza was dedicated on May 7, 2022.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this effort to create an inclusive community at UW-Madison. A community that recognizes the historic impact our Black Fraternities and Sororities have had and has provided a critical step in increasing the visibility of NPHC organizations.

If you have questions about your donation to the Divine Nine Campus Recognition Fund please reach out to Becca Pattermann, Development Specialist, Student Affairs Advancement at becca.pattermann@wisc.edu
