HAYS, Kan. – Fraternities and sororities at Fort Hays State University raised more than $5,000 for charities during the Fall 2017 semester.

Members of the Greek communities also performed more than 1,200 hours of community service, said Stephen Hopson, coordinator of student involvement at Fort Hays State University.

“The fraternity and sorority members take pride in being leaders who succeed both inside and outside of the classroom,” said Hopson.

He said that, over the last three years, fraternities and sororities at FHSU have donated more than $20,000 and completed more than 8,000 hours of community service.

“The community places a strong emphasis on doing well academically, as shown with our all-Greek GPA being above the average for full-time undergraduate students for the past 12 semesters,” said Hopson.

Hopson also said that 72 percent of the members are also involved in other organizations.
