Historical Note

The University of Wyoming. Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life served as a support and guide for chapters and councils throughout the university community. The community was comprised of chapters, who were overseen by two governance councils depending on the type and affiliation of the organization. Fraternities and sororities were developed to support students on campus by encouraging growth and development through education, building connections, giving back to the communities they reside in, and leadership. They are some of the oldest student organizations on campus. The first fraternity was founded on the University of Wyoming campus in 1903.
