Cliff Alexander Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life and Leadership
Welcome to the Cliff Office
Cliff Alexander Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life and Leadership website. For almost 175 years, fraternities and sororities on our campus have forged a rich heritage of tradition, history, success and pride. This heritage benefits both our fraternity and sorority members and the broader university community.
In 1833, the first fraternity, Alpha Delta Phi, was established at Miami. Since then, five social Greek-letter organizations have been founded here at the University: Beta Theta Pi (1839), Phi Delta Theta (1848), Sigma Chi (1855), Delta Zeta (1902), and Phi Kappa Tau (1906). The founding of these fraternal organizations has earned Miami University the nickname, "Mother of Fraternities."
Today, the University hosts over 50 fraternity and sorority chapters. Each chapter is committed to the Principles of the Greek Community: Scholarship & Learning, Service & Philanthropy, Leadership, Community, and Brotherhood & Sisterhood. Approximately one third of our undergraduate student population are members of the Fraternity/Sorority community. Our members are involved in many of the University's events, programs, and student organizations.
We invite you to navigate our website. We have designed our site to provide an introduction to the many different facets of our fraternity and sorority community. This site will provide you with access to information about the services, programs, and events sponsored by our office and our fraternal organizations.
