The fraternity and sorority community at U-M is comprised of four self-governing councils: Interfraternity Council (IFC), Multicultural Greek Council (MGC), National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), and the Panhellenic Association (Panhellenic). On November 9, 2017, the University of Michigan Interfraternity Council (IFC) leaders and 26 of their affiliated chapter presidents voted to suspend social activities and new member education efforts until further notice. IFC leaders are now focused on a chapter-by-chapter assessment and charting a safer path forward for their community. MGC, NPHC, and Panhellenic continue to be fully active in their endeavors.
With regard to recent statements about alleged policy violations, the university is actively and vigorously investigating these reports. Our first concern is the safety of our students. The university will continue to work with the student leaders in our fraternity and sorority community to create a safe environment for all students on the U-M campus.
