The Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life collaborates with many campus partners to provide our fraternities and sororities with the resources to thrive on campus. Some of these resources include the OFSL Resource Manual, campus-wide policies and procedures, and academic resources for individual members and chapters.

Fraternity and Sorority Community Policy

All fraternities and sororities at UA must comply with all aspects of the Fraternity and Sorority Community Policy.

Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life Resource Manual

The OFSL Resource Manual contains information and resources for Greek leaders on campus including but not limited to campus policies and procedures, contact information, transition information, and advisor resources.

The OFSL Resource Manual is currently under construction. If you would like a updated version, please email ofsl@ua.edu.

On-Campus Events

Event Smart from The SOURCE is UA’s event training and registration program for student organizations. The process is designed to guide student organizations toward more successful events by utilizing policy, including the Social Event Guidelines and Student Organization Handbook, and connecting with administrators through the online event registration form. Event Smart Training is a mandatory workshop that educates student organization members about the online event registration form utilized to submit events for approval. Student organization members will not be able to register events until they have completed this training and received Event Smart certification for the current academic year.
