I do put the leadership positions and service work on my resume but if I did not have those, I would not include my Greek affiliation at all. I am applying to grad schools in the East and Midwest with a hope of working in a major city in those regions. NOBODY sees my Greek affiliation as giving me a professional edge on its own and some interviewers have negative connotations about it because everyone knows a major part of Greek life here is wearing fun costumes to over the top parties, drinking, paying big fees, etc. I've enjoyed all of the that but I know no employer sees that as being valuable. Unless you are applying to some position in the South that has a pick me Bama sorority alum doing the hiring, the Greek affiliation is not an edge. That's a fact. It's 2024.
