Panhellenic Association

Panhellenic Creed:

We, as Undergraduate Members of women's fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities.

We, as Fraternity Women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.

Chapter Academic Performance

The Panhellenic Association at Grand Valley also strives for excellence in career development. The Panhellenic Association hosts an annual Backbacks to Briefcases event which focuses on preparing Panhellenic women for their future careers. This past Winter 2012 semester we focused on three main topics: resumes, dressing for success, and interviewing and negotiating for women . Each workshop provided important skills that are required for success after GVSU graduation.

The chapter with the highest attendance for all three workshops received an award for Dedication to Career Development. Congratulations to Alpha Omicron Pi for receiving this award! An individual was also recognized for her career dedication. This award was given to Jen Kushner of Gamma Phi Beta.
