Lehigh Interfraternity Council Expansion Announcement

Lehigh University is open for expansion! We are accepting proposals for organizations interested in joining the Interfraternity Council in the spring 2024 and spring 2026 semesters. Expansion applications are due by Friday, April 28, 2023 at 4:00 PM EST.  Applications can be submitted via email to infrasor@lehigh.edu 

You can find our Expansion Policy here. Applications will be reviewed in May and June and 3-5 organizations will be invited to present on campus at the start of the fall 2023 semester. 

Lehigh University recognizes that the expansion of fraternities and sororities involves multiple parties including the governing council, the University, the inter/national fraternity or sorority, and, at times, a student interest group or alumni organization.  The expansion process, whenever possible, will take into consideration the interests of all parties. Lehigh University reserves the right to deny recognition to any group that expresses interest.  Preference will be given to organizations that have previously existed at Lehigh University.

For more information about the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs and the fraternity and sorority community at Lehigh please visit our website.

If you have questions please contact Sara Runyon in the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs at skd421@lehigh.edu.  We are happy to connect with any headquarters partners that are interested in learning more about the opportunity to expand to Lehigh!

Relay for Life

 This past Friday on March 31st, Greek life at Lehigh engaged in the annual Relay for Life event. Relay for Life is sponsored by the American Cancer Society and is the world's largest volunteer-based fundraising event. The event is place where communities come together and honor those affected by cancer. The American Cancer Society strives to achieve and reflect their mission statement, "Save lives, Celebrate Lives and Lead the Fight for a World Without Cancer". This past Friday, our greek organizations here at Lehigh not only upheld that mission, but also positively contributed through donations and raising money for the American Cancer Society. 

To date, Lehigh University has raised $52,977.74 towards the campaign. The top five contributing teams towards this event were CAC exec, Pi Beta Phi, Theta Chi, Phi Sigma Kappa, and Alpha Gamma Delta. Those five each raised over the $3,000 each as a team. The top 6 contributing participants all raised over $1,000 each, the top participant being David Joseph at the $4,743. The top company was Zeta Tau Alpha at $3,685. The fight does not stop here, Lehigh's campus will continue to be engaged and raise money to donate to the American Cancer Society to celebrate lives and lead the fight for a world against cancer.
