RU fraternity honors the past

During Radford University's 2014 Homecoming and Family Weekend, members of the Mu Hexaton chapter of Phi Sigma Kappa dedicated a bench in honor of Patricia "Trish" McGrath Morgan '79.

Morgan, who passed away in 2012, was a "Little Sister" to the chapter when she was a student at RU.

The bench sits on the circle around the campus fountain. Its back faces Heth Hall, and its front faces Muse Hall and McConnell Library.

The RU Greek community is currently celebrating the 85th anniversary. The first Greek organization on campus, Sigma Sigma Sigma, was chartered in 1929 with 25 students. A tradition of excellence has continued ever since.

Today, the RU Greek community is comprised of 22 general fraternities and sororities. The organizations fall under the governance of three different coordinating councils - Interfraternity Council (IFC), National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) and the Panhellenic Council (PC). Greek students at RU gain leadership experience, forge lifelong friendships, receive academic success support and enjoy many opportunities for community service and philanthropy.
