- Greek Life

Quick Stats

Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There's no Greek life at Skidmore! For some students, that's a huge reason to come to Skidmore. For others, it wasn't a game changer in choosing colleges to apply to. The absence of Greek life is not felt at Skidmore because it is such a small school to begin with.  

While Greek life is extremely helpful in making a big school feel smaller, Skidmore is small enough without needing to divide the school into smaller groups. That being said, students find their own niches on campus whether that be a sports team, an a cappella group, or a club that they're a part of. These smaller niches are opportunities to hang out in a group of people with like interests without being anything like a fraternity or a sorority.

There is no Greek system at Skidmore, which I think is a big drawback in the social scene. Underclassmen try to party in a dorm (not a good idea), and there isn't a surefire place to go for a party or a place to hang out.

Skidmore doesn't have Greek life,...

Skidmore doesn't have Greek life, but that doesn't mean there aren't parties! There's plenty of nightlife in Scribner Village and Northwoods Apartments on-campus, as well as Stables and other places off-campus. We also have great comedy groups, a cappella groups, dances, and all sorts of things to do and see on campus on the weekends.

There is no Greek life, but trust me, the parties don't suffer because of it.
