Central Michigan University Top Questions

Most popular fraternities are Delta Chi, SAE, and Sigma Pi, for soroities there are Phi Sigma Sigma, ZTA, Delta Zeta, Sigma Kappa. there also numerous teams that are popular like the Football, Basketball, Baseball, Wrestling, Volleyball, etc. I am involved in Delta Chi, and it has been one of the best decisions in my life. We try to interact as much as we can with the community and try to raise money for our national philanthropy, Jimmy V Foundation. When i lived in the dorm, my door was always open. The most popular athletic event is football games. Alot of the students get really involved with them. I have seen numerous guest speakers. I would say a majority of our school parties atleast 2 times a week. Fraternities and Sororities are very important. They do so much for many organizations by raising money for them. There are atleast 2-3 events a month that pertian to this. Most of the greeks get involved in these events and help each other out.

One of the biggest aspects of my life is my fraternity, Delta Chi. I believe that the greek system here is, although small in numbers, a good greek system. We are all not just a bunch of "frat boys". That's what attracted me most about Greek life as a freshmen. Delta Chi is a social fraternity, and I have some of my best friends in there that I can see myself stayin in touch with for life. However, the fraternity has helped me tremendously academically. I have much better study habits now and my GPA has increased every semester. Tailgating is a huge deal at Central. It is much bigger than Michigan, Michigan State and Western Michigan. As much as we love to tailgate, I don't our athletics are that popular. Aside from football games, we usually don't have huge crowds at any other sporting event. I just think it's kind of hard to get real pumped up for MAC sports, unlike the Big 10 or ACC.

The greek life on campus is a pretty big thing, a lot of people participate and they have some events that make an impact on campus. But if you aren't interested or if it just isn't for you, don't worry there are plenty of other things to get involved in such as honoraries for your department or any of the other numerous groups on campus. People party a lot. You can almost guarantee to find something to do any night of the week if you know the right people. You have to be willing to put yourself out there and get to know people and you are certain to have a good time.

I don't know anything about the social life at central.

I am involved in Delta Zeta and the we are pretty good with athletics ecspecially football so tailgating is always a good time. They also have a lot of guest speakers and there is soo many things to get involved in at central. there is never anything not going on that you can get involved in and it doesn't always involve alcohol.

There are a lot of things always going on around Campus, OTF Productions and Program Board always have something to go to, and they are all really good too.

Greek Life is awesome. It seems to be a key part of CMU's campus. I'm involved with Alpha Gamma Delta, a social sorority. Students in different dorms have different feelings about leaving their doors open - in Woldt, we leave ours open. Athletic events are popular, guest speakers aren't so much I don't think and I think theater isn't very popular either. I met my close friends through Greek Life and by living with them in the dorms (and going to high school with them!). On Tuesday at 2am if I am up, I am calling the RA because the floor above me (Woldt 2nd) is being extremely loud and the RA's aren't doing anything so I'm probably freaking out, losing sleep and my grades are suffering. People usually party once or twice a week (if at all). Fraternities and sororities are VERY important. Last weekend I was participating in Greek Week and celebrating with our partner fraternity. On Saturday night I can hang out with friends, go to a movie, go out to eat, have a girls night in. Lots of stuff.

Sigma Alpha Epsilon, which I'm involved in, represents leadership and integrity within the Greek Community. The brotherhood represented by this group is second to none on this campus or elsewhere. Members of SAE study, party, hang out, and reside together in the closest of bonds and friendships.

The most popular groups on campus are the fraternities and sororities. Though they are the most popular RSOs on campus, I don't believe that the school shines enough spotlight on them. I know for a fact that my fraternity, the Delta Chi Fraternity, is involved in plenty and we do even more to give back to the community, to the students, and to the world.

If you want to party, there is one out there for you. If not, then that is cool to and there are people who will have fun with you no matter what.
