During the past two weeks, new students had the opportunity to participate in rush week, a time when they can explore and possibly join a fraternity or sorority on the University of La Verne campus.
All Greek organizations gathered this week to celebrate Greek Week, which took place the week of May 5-11. Greek Week started on Saturday, May 5 with the barbecue and All Greek softball tournament from 2 to 7:30 p.m in which all fraternities and sororities competed against each other. Four teams were composed of 20 members each.
Chi Delta Omicron is now officially a fraternity at the University of La Verne and has been recognized as such for about a month. It has five official members who comprise the executive board of their fraternity and they are expecting to gain more members this spring.
Fraternities and sororities, being student organizations, serve a primary purpose to create environments for college students to form friendships by choosing the Greek organization that best suits one's preference.
