The Key

Involvement & Engagement 143|Page www.kutztown.edu/thekey There are three governing councils that fall under UGC: College Panhellenic Council (CPC), Kutztown Fraternal Council (KFC), and Multicultural Greek Council (MGC). These councils provide governance and programming to their respective member chapters and coordinate recruitment/intake efforts on campus. In addition to programming and educational efforts through all four Greek councils on campus, each recognized chapter sponsors programs for their members and the campus community throughout the year. UGC is a standing committee represented on the Student Government Board. If you are interested in learning more about becoming involved with Greek Life on campus or about upcoming events, please visit MSU 274, or call 610-683-4087. Please visit the Greek Life Services home page at www.kutztown.edu/involvement for more information. Diversity Council (DC) The Diversity Council is a diversity focused organization that serves as a forum to address the concerns that diverse communities face both within the campus community and beyond to the Student Government Board and administration. The DC consists of diversified organizations with a dedication to issues such as women’s and gender rights, the LGBTQ+ community, disabilities, multicultural issues, faith & spirituality, international students, socioeconomic issues, and veteran’s and military affairs.

Greek Letter Organizations Expansion Policy Kutztown University’s Greek community is proud of the accomplishments achieved over the last several years and the United Greek Council continues to be a part of leading such a transformation. This outlined expansion policy has been created to ensure controlled growth while maintaining a stable, viable membership in the existing groups. As we look to the future of Greek life at Kutztown, we must also continue to focus on the existing chapters and work to improve the community internally, which may result in a lowered need for future expansion.
