Established at Texas State University-San Marcos in the Fall of 1999, The Multicultural Greek Council was strived to recognize and support Greek social and service organizations whose needs had not been met by any existing council. Kappa Delta Chi, Sigma Delta Lambda, Lambda Theta Phi, Sigma Lambda Beta and Sigma Lambda Gamma joined together in order to better meet their individual and joint needs
, to voice their concerns and to ensure harmony among member organizations. The Multicultural Greek Council (MGC) is currently composed of eight (8) Greek letter Fraternities and Sororities:
Fraternities:
- Phi Iota Alpha
- Sigma Lambda Beta
Sororities:
- Kappa Delta Chi
- Delta XI Nu
- Sigma Lambda Gamma
The Organizations in the council are predominantly Hispanic or Multicultural based but have grown to attain membership from world-wide range of ethnicities and races. Service
Members demonstrate tremendous personal commitment and individual involvement in community service projects that have been the cornerstone of these organizations since their conception. Support
Another positive aspect of membership of Greek-Lettered fraternities and sororities is the support received for those seeking comfort. Greek Life is a very rewarding experience that helps people form bonds of life-longfriendships and become part of a community of leadership and excellence. Belonging to these organizations gives students a sense of belonging, and a sense of family away from home. Social Interaction
MGC fraternities and sororities also provide the climate for social interaction and inclusion. Students develop best in environments where they feel valued, protected, accepted, and socially connected with people with similar backgrounds and similar interests and ideas. Friendship
One of the biggest benefits of involvement is the deep feelings of friendship with fellow members, known as "Brotherhood" and "Sisterhood." Bonding first takes place through intake process, as they learn the history and traditions of the fraternity or sorority. Lifetime Commitment
The bond that is shared between fraternity and sorority members lasts a lifetime and it progresses past the undergraduate experience. After graduation, members remain active and influential in their communities. Graduate or Alumni/Alumnae also provide a means of professional networking for members after college.
