https://www.iit.edu/campus-life/get-involved/fraternity-and-sorority-life
Illinois Tech affirms that professional and social Fraternity & Sorority organizations constitute an integral part of the campus community. Recognizing that membership in a Fraternity & Sorority organization is of significant educational value, Illinois Tech supports the concept that membership can be a worthwhile component to a student’s life. Illinois Tech recognizes eight fraternities and two sororities which afford their members leadership development, academic support and a range of social activities. Many of these organizations have received national honors for their services and achievements. Please feel free to contact the Office of Campus Life at 312.367.3720 for more information.

Fraternity and Sorority Chapter Houses
The Quad, located at the southeastern corner of the Mies Campus, is home to five fraternity and two sorority chapter houses. The fraternities are generally self-governing with housing corporations staffed by alumni who oversee financial operations and advise the general workings of the organization. The sorority chapter houses are owned and maintained by Illinois Tech. While each fraternity and sorority house has its own unique floor plan and mix of amenities, all houses have a resident advisor (RA), academic liaison, and food service option internal to the chapter.
For more information about fraternity and sorority living, contact the individual organization leaders and/or the Office of Campus Life. You can find contact information on the Campus Life website (https://www.iit.edu/campus-life/get-involved/fraternity-and-sorority-life/chapters).
SERVICE AND LEADERSHIP AWARDS
The annual Clinton E. Stryker award ceremony recognizes students, and occasionally others, who have made notable contributions to campus life. The Richard A. Babcock Leadership Award, established in 1995, honors an outstanding sophomore or junior who has displayed significant leadership ability.
The Lincoln Academy Student Laureate award honors an outstanding senior from each of the four-year degree granting institutions of higher learning in Illinois. The award winner receives the Student Lincoln Academy Medallion and thereby becomes a Student Laureate. The recipients attend a special ceremony held in the House of Representatives of the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield, Illinois.
