The Fraternity and Sorority Community is a self-governing community run by four sub-councils. All recognized fraternities and sororities are required to belong to a sub-council as well as the Inter-Greek Council. These councils are student-run organizations committed to setting policies, expectations and community standards for the entire Fraternity and Sorority Community, and to holding individuals and organizations accountable within these standards. Each council works with an Advisor from Student Life. The student-led governing councils provides an opportunity for self-governance within the fraternity and sorority community. 

Inter-Greek Council (IGC)

The Inter-Greek Council (IGC) is the governing council for the entire fraternity and sorority community. They meet biweekly and all member organizations are required to participate. The purpose of the IGC is to foster a unified community that upholds: the values of brotherhood and sisterhood; high academic standards; philanthropic action; development of the individuals of each chapter; and support for the greater Tufts community and Greek communities through adherence to the IGC constitution with transparency and unbiased governance.

Local Organization Council 

The Local Organizations Council is the governing body for the three local organizations on campus. They work together to establish community and create policies and structures unique to the local groups.  

Panhellenic Council (Panhel)

The Panhellenic Council (Panhel) is the governing body for the two National Panhellenic (NPC) sororities on campus. They work together to promote women's empowerment through programming and awareness activities as a collaborative sorority community.

Interfraternity Council (IFC)

The Interfraternity Council (IFC) is the governing body for the nine national fraternities and one local co-ed fraternity on campus. They work together to promote healthy risk management and education and serve as a voice for fraternities.

Multicultural Greek Council (MGC)

The Multicultural Greek Council (MGC) works to bring the city-wide culturally based organizations together to have a strong presence on campus. There are two MGC events per year which all organizations interested in attracting Tufts students are required to participate in.

Each semester the FSL advisors run a chapter GPA report for all chapters that submit an updated chapter roster.  The chapter average, council average and all student average are posted here.  Individual chapter reports are available to chapter leadership if requested.  

All FSL students agree to release grades to chapter leadership when joining an FSL organization.
