Greek Points were created to incentivize the Greek community to foster relationships with members in different organizations other than their own. Greek Points provide the opportunity to come together and serve the campus and the University in service and philanthropic efforts. The goal of the Greek Programming Board and the Greek point system is that members will leave the university with friends in not only their own Greek Chapter, but with friends in all four councils.
For a current list of eligible events, please refer to the table below. Follow @uaofsl Instagram for live updates on Greek Point Events happening daily.

Greek Programming Board and the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life has the final say on the delegation of Greek Points for events. Points value will be announced before the event. The Board withholds the right to deny based on location and availability of transportation for students.
The board has a strict two strike policy for not returning the completed attendance sheet within one week. After the first strike you will receive a warning. After two strikes your organization or chapter will be put on probation and will no longer be able to register or host Greek Point events for the rest of the semester.
