Campus Events & Programming

While academics will be a major focus of your college career, the Office of Student Life at Barry University believes that a complete college education requires involvement in activities, events, and programs outside the classroom. Therefore, the department plays a major role in the social and educational programming throughout the campus.

Why be a Greek at Barry University

Greek life is an important part of the co-curricular experience of the students at Barry University. Students who are involved outside the classroom do better academically, report a more satisfying educational experience, and persist to graduation in greater numbers than their counterparts who choose not to become involved. 

It is built upon a commitment to the ritualistic values of their organizations, a commitment to service an understanding of their responsibility for being a contributing member of the community, and to the personal and professional development of members.

Fraternity/Sorority Life here at Barry founded is upon principles of social justice, high social standards, leadership, academic excellence, and sisterhood/brotherhood. More than just social groups, fraternities and sororities are values-based organizations that seek to develop better men and women.
