Advisors & Alumni

Advisors 

We work to ensure every advisor is informed and up to date with events and activities surrounding the fraternity and sorority life community. If you are an advisor for a chapter on campus and are not receiving our updates, let us know. 

Each term, the advisor report is sent out to highlight the accomplishments of fraternity and sorority life on our campus.

• Check out the latest Advisor Report.

Our office typically hosts an advisor training event once a term, during the Fraternity and Sorority Life Leadership Academy. Our advisors work diligently to assist our chapter in our Chapter Assessment Program (CAP).
