Fraternity & Sorority Life: What do I need to know?

In 1776, five students at W&M founded Phi Beta Kappa, the first organization to call itself a fraternity. It is only appropriate that W&M is often referred to as the “Birthplace of the American College Fraternity.” Since that time, fraternities and sororities have evolved, but still remain committed to similar principles and values, such as scholarship, service, brotherhood/sisterhood and leadership.
