FSCL Assessment and Semester Reports

Each semester the Fraternity, Sorority and Cooperative Life Office collects and reports key performance indicators, such as academic performance, service & philanthropy contributions, graduation rates, total membership and organization compliance for all FSCL organizations. Transparency is important to the Purdue Fraternity, Sorority and Cooperative community and governing councils concerning the status of the organizations. Accordingly, reporting includes various data that can be used by the various stakeholders for comparison purposes. We take great pride in the accomplishments of our various student organizations and have high expectations for our community. Therefore, we encourage all students, parents and families to be good consumers as they consider joining an organization.
