-Panhellenic Council meets at 5:00PM every Thursday in the Faculty Dining Room.

PURPOSE
The Panhellenic Council is the governing body for Wittenberg University’s six women’s Greek letter organizations: Alpha Delta Pi, Delta Gamma, Gamma Phi Beta, Kappa Delta, and Sigma Kappa. The Panhellenic Council exists to develop and encourage women’s fraternity life and to promote positive relations among the sorority chapters. This body stands for the ideals of Greek life including friendship, leadership, scholarship, and service both to the community and to each other.
ACTIVITIES
The Panhellenic Council sponsors a wide-range of programs in areas such as leadership, scholarship, risk management and new member education; it is responsible for sorority recruitment; it chooses and trains members of the Greek Standards Board; it oversees the Greek honoraries Order of Omega, Rho Lambda and Gamma Sigma Alpha; it helps organize all Greek community service events, and events for the Wittenberg and Springfield communities. Not only does the Panellenic Council desire to create programs for the Greek community, it also wants to create programs, which benefit the entire student body.
STRUCTURE
The Panhellenic Council is made up of an executive board, delegates and a Greek Advisor. Executive positions, chosen by rotation by founding date are the President, Vice President, Chief Justice, and Recruitment Chair. Executive positions filled by non-rotation and election are Assistant Recruitment Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, Public Relations Chair, and Student Senate Representative, Programming Chair. In addition one delegate, chosen by individual chapters represents each sorority.
National Panhellenic Creed
We, as undergraduate members of women's fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities.
We as fraternity women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.
