The Interfraternity Council (IFC) is the local governing body that serves the affiliated fraternities within the council. Since the first fraternity came to campus in 1845, IFC chapters have striven to embody the highest levels of leadership, scholarship, and service. IFC prides itself on its ability to create a supportive community for students, provide opportunities for friendship and brotherhood and offering numerous leadership opportunities across the council.
Men interested in joining an Interfraternity Council (IFC) fraternity may do so by participating in the IFC semi-structured process informally known as “Rush” or by being offered a “late bid”.

We firmly stand against political violence of any kind and recognize the peaceful transition of power as most critical to a free and fair democratic process. This act of insurrection is not reflective of the vision we share for our country, and we mourn those citizens and officers killed and injured during the horrific events that occurred.
