To Each Their Own
Diversity at Millsaps College is ever present each day you walk across the campus. Attending a small liberal arts school, the college attracts students of all racial, economic, political, religious and sexual backgrounds. The college has groups that represent all facets of a diverse student population and has annual festivals and programs that showcase, support, and allow students to explore all the different ethnicities and beliefs of the students that attend our college. Diversity is not shunned, but welcomed among all our students. Our administration encourages us to find, voice, and stand behind our backgrounds and beliefs and provide opportunities to do so.

Half and Half
The Greek population at Millsaps College makes up about fifty percent of the students. There are four sororities and five fraternities. The reason that so much of our student population is greek is because the process of rush is simply not as intense as it is at other schools. Plenty of greeks and non greek students are friends and go to the parties. The fraternities generally have parties every weekend, while the sororities have two to three parties a year. Swaps are parties held between the sororities and fraternities and are exclusive to members of the two houses having the swap. The guys can live in the fraternity houses but the girls cannot live in the sorority houses. Overall at Millsaps, the consensus about Greek life is to try first get involved and "go greek" and then to find your perfect fit, and the best thing is that at Millsaps, everyone has a perfect fit.
