Welcome to the University of Tennessee Panhellenic Council website! The resources provided on this site will help you learn about the Panhellenic community at UT as well as answer some of the initial questions you have about being Greek at the University of Tennessee.
The Panhellenic community at UT is over 100 years old and rich with history! Today, the University of Tennessee is home to 18 sororities representing chapters from the National Panhellenic Conference and the National Pan-Hellenic Council, involving more than 2,000 women, representing 17% of the student population. These values-based organizations uphold their founding values of scholarship, service, leadership and sisterhood. The Panhellenic community lives out its core ideology: “promote the positive, develop women and create an environment of unity and fairness”. Panhellenic Council strives to develop women through the relationships they make while at UT, the leadership skills they gain, the challenge of academics and the philanthropic/community service experiences they participate in.
Panhellenic Core Ideology:
“Promote the Positive, Develop Women, Create an Environment of Unity and Fairness”
Panhellenic Creed:
We, as the 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 and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.
