Fraternity and Sorority Life
Community Report

Each semester the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office complies a community report to share the academic, philanthropic, and service achievements of chapters.

As we bid farewell to another semester, I find myself reflecting on the many successes we've accomplished together. First, I want to extend my appreciation to each member of our fraternity and sorority community. Your unwavering commitment to our shared values continues to inspire and uplift us all. 

Throughout the Spring 2024 semester, we've witnessed remarkable achievements in academics, leadership, and community engagement. Our chapters have continued to lead by example, fostering a culture of service within our fraternity and sorority community and beyond.

Highlights from this semester include: 

  • 12.6% increase in community members for the 2023-2024 academic year.
  • 19 members received recognition at the annual Applauding Excellence Awards. 
  • The community hosted a week of philanthropic events. They raised money and completed service for the iamstonefotlz FOUNDATION, Dance Marathon, NAMI, and student scholarships.
  • Community members and chapters received recognition in the BGSU News

Your dedication is the force behind everything we accomplish together. Let us continue to uphold our shared values and build an even brighter future for fraternity and sorority life.

Fraternally,

Stacey Allan
Associate Director of Student Engagement

Commitment Plan

View commitment plan

Bowling Green State University is committed to partnering with students, advisors, inter/national headquarters, and others to advocate for a life-long safe fraternal experience. In alignment with the Inter- University Council of Presidents’ Hazing Prevention principles, the Chapter Commitment plan holds fraternities and sororities accountable to their purpose, standards, and values. The Chapter Commitment plan intends to aid the fraternity and sorority community to:

  • Enhance awareness of and commitment to a community of care by understanding Bowling Green State University’s policies and procedures and knowing how to report concerning behavior.
  • Prioritize the health, safety, and well-being of chapter members through educational trainings, outreach, and resources.
  • Support positive working relationships between the University and individual chapters by connecting with staff members to celebrate successes and seek assistance when issues arise.

An organization can receive the following standings:

  • Compliant: Chapter has completed commitment plan initiative most to all (90-100%).
  • Compliant - Watch: Chapter has completed some to most of the commitment plan initiative (70.1-89%) and will spend a semester on a watch status for the areas which they did not complete.
  • Compliant - Warning: Chapter has completed just over half to some of the commitment plan initiative (50.1-70%) and will spend a semester on a warning status for the areas which they did not complete and will have extra meetings with FSL staff to work on completion in the next semester.
  • Non-Compliant - Warning: Chapter has not completed the commitment plan initiative (50% or less) and will spend one semester on a warning status for all areas and will have extra meetings with FSL staff to work on completion in the next semester.
  • Academic: the organization is on an academic watch based on their chapter GPA of under 2.50 term gpa 

An organization can receive a conduct status which means the organization was found responsible of a BGSU Conduct Violation

  • Probation: the organization is on probation for the next academic semester or year
  • Deferred Suspension: the organization is on deferred suspension for the next academic semester or year
  • Suspension: the organization is suspended from the BGSU campus
  • Pending: The organization is undergoing a conduct investigation

The University conduct report is determined by the number of conduct cases where the organization has been found responsible by the university. If the case was referred to a council standards board or to the assigned professional staff advisor to monitor, it is not denoted.
