Our greatest concern regarding the unrecognized organizations at GW is our lack of information and knowledge about them, coupled with a history of violations of University policies, local laws and the policies of their own National organizations.
 

Zeta Psi is a National fraternity who has recently begun efforts to establish a chapter at GW without the approval or recognition of the University. This effort will not be supported by GW, the IFC, or the Greek Life office.

Sigma Alpha Mu (SAM or Sammy) As of October 2009, Sigma Alpha Mu has opted to close the unrecognized chapter at GW.

APEs (Alpha Pi Epsilon) As of late 2007, it is believed that the APEs have ceased operations and disbanded.

The George Washington University is committed to supporting a vibrant and strong fraternity/sorority community through a collection of outstanding chapters who support and live their respective values. We feel that this can best be achieved through partnerships with National organizations, alumni advisors, individual chapters and the University. Greek Life can play a positive role in the development of a student throughout their college years through values-based fraternities and sororities, with the support and assistance of the University.
 


If you have questions about unrecognized groups, please contact the Office of Greek Life immediately, by emailing wicki@gwu.edu, or by calling (202) 994-6555.
