Greek Life

Since 1863, Pacific University has been home to Greek-letter organizations. Greek Life at Pacific is made up of local sororities, fraternities, and a diaternity all of which are governing by the Greek Senate. The four pillars of Greek Life at Pacific are scholarship, friendship, service, and leadership. It is through these pillars that we work together as community to embrace our members, the university, and extended community.
