UNK– More than 90 men have joined a fraternity at the University of Nebraska at Kearney.
The fraternities, Alpha Tau Omega, Delta Tau Delta, Pi Kappa Alpha, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Sigma Tau Gamma, signed a combined total of 92 men.
“This is an increase of about 15 men to our Greek Community from last year,” said Tracy Lungrin, Greek Life coordinator. “And more men will be added when Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma Lambda Beta sign members later this fall.” Fraternity Recruitment begins in the summer months, between June and August, and also goes through the fall semester for many chapters.
“We want our incoming students to become engaged and involved on campus right away,” Lungrin said. “And joining a Greek fraternity or sorority is a great way to give them a sense of belonging and a connection to UNK before classes begin.”
