Greek life earns high marks in fall 2025 semester

MURRAY, Ky. — Murray State University Greek organizations showcased a successful fall 2025 academic semester based on the recently released grade report.

Alpha Gamma Delta led the sororities among fall 2025 active members with an overall 3.66 GPA, while Sigma Phi Epsilon excelled among the fraternities with a 3.56 overall GPA.

Sigma Alpha and Sigma Phi Epsilon new members had an outstanding semester with a 3.35 GPA and 3.56 GPA respectively. Greek organization members had an overall GPA of 3.28, surpassing the overall undergraduate average of 3.21.

“Once again our fraternities and sororities have demonstrated their commitment to academic excellence and the high standard they place on member success in the classroom,” said Murray State Vice President for Student Affairs and Enrollment Management Dr. Don Robertson. “The Greek overall GPA continues to be higher than the overall GPA for the campus. I am very proud of the academic focus and success of our chapters.”

At Murray State, the all-Greek GPA has been higher than the all-campus GPA for the past 20 semesters. Individual organizations work diligently to be successful academically and compete yearly for the President's Cup, an award presented to the fraternity and sorority with the highest chapter GPA. In addition, Greek organizations have developed programming to help support members academically. Since it is imperative to a student's collegiate success that they succeed academically, both organizations and the Office of Greek Life provide academic assistance to help support Greek members.

The Murray State Greek community has 1,183 members, just more than 15% of Murray State’s total undergraduate population. The mission of the Office of Greek Life is to promote an atmosphere where chapters and individuals can excel in leadership, scholarship, service and philanthropy and personal growth.
