Greeks
get good grades
Christopher W. Alexander
Greek Life at Villanova has designated each month of
the fall semester with a different theme regarding Greeks and Greek events
on and off campus. October was given the theme, “Greeks Get Good
Grades” in reference to the fact that scholastically the Greek Life
organization achieves outstanding and exemplary academic marks. This is
traditionally, and unfortunately, not widely known outside the Greek Life
family, but that is rapidly changing with promotions such as these to
let the public (students, faculty and the administration alike) know about
the tremendous job Greeks do academically as a whole.
The Greek men, women, and collectively all have a higher average GPA than
the full student body in each category. The all male GPA at Villanova
University is a 2.91 with the Greek males scoring a 2.97. The all-female
GPA is a 3.09 with their Greek female counterparts scoring a tremendous
3.29! This together puts the full university GPA at an average of 2.93
and the Greek Life average at 3.13. The two highest fraternities in terms
of average GPA are Delta Tau Delta with a GPA of 3.22 and Beta Theta Pi
with a GPA of 3.17. On the other side, the two highest sororities in terms
of GPA are Delta Gamma with a GPA of 3.67 and Alpha Phi with a GPA of
3.32.
