the Greek Week Manual - Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs

Greek Week
Greek Week is an opportunity for members of the Syracuse
Greek community to come together for a week of friendly competition,
community service, and positive interaction with the campus and the
city. Chapters from all six governing councils – Interfraternity Council,
PanHellenic Council, National PanHellenic Council, National Association
of Latino Fraternal Organizations, Multicultural Greek Council and the
Professional Fraternity Council – have been placed into eleven different
teams. Each team will compete from April 12th – 19th in various
activities.
Teams receive points for every event they compete in, with the
winner receiving the most points. Point will be tallied at the end of each
activity and added to the team’s overall scores. There will also be a
social media competition the week before Greek Week and spirit points
will be awards for participation that will count toward Greek Week
points.
Each chapter must select a representative to act as a captain for
their team. Chapters must also select representatives to compete in
the different activities.
