Groups
Welcome to the FSILG Office
The FSILG Office works to promote a cohesive community that values civic and social responsibility, mutual respect, and the growth and development of organizations and their members. These organizations include twenty-five fraternities, seven sororities, and five independent living groups.
Check out the tabs to the right for additional resources, FSILG office contacts, forms, and other important information. Can't find what you're looking for? Send an email to fsilg-office@mit.edu and someone will contact you shortly.
The FSILG Office advises these student organizations:
- The Interfraternity Council (IFC)
- The Panhellenic Association (Panhel)
- The Living Group Council (LGC)
- The Multicultural Greek Council (MGC)
And the FSILG Office also works closely with these organizations:
- Association of Independent Living Groups (AILG)
- The FSILG Cooperative, Inc.(FCI)
- Independent Residence Development Fund (IRDF)
Each fraternity, sorority, and independent living group is self-governing. Each organization manages its own operations and maintenance, and develops its academic, social, membership, recreational, and external policies and programs. These organizations provide a unique experience in leadership, community planning, and group interactions. FSILG communities are located on MIT's campus, as well as off-campus in a number of surrounding communities. The MIT FSILG map shows the location of all FSILG housing facilities.
Important note: With the exception of Kappa Alpha Theta, Pi Beta Phi sorority and Kappa Sigma fraternity residences, the FSILGs are independently owned and operated by alumni house corporations not affiliated with the MIT FSILG Office, MIT Housing, or MIT Facilities. MIT is not responsible for the management and maintenance of these facilities.
F.A.Q.s:
The CARMA program is sponsored by the AILG and if you are interested in participating, please contact Bob Ferrara, senior director in DSL, or Jacob Oppenheimer, assistant director for FSILGs.
I've attended a PartySafePlus training. Am I all set for four years?
Yes. Once you have been completed PartySafePlus Online and Scenarios you do not need to do the program again. If you have completed an older version of the program (prior to Fall 2014), you will need to complete the new program.
My PartySafePlus Scenarios session got cancelled. Why?
Due to the group work and discussion aspects of the program at least 20 people must attend a session in order for it to be held successfully. Sessions may be cancelled in advance if not enough people sign up through the online registration system, or in the moment if not enough people show up to the presentation. If you sign-up for a certain session, please respect other participants and be there!
Do I need to complete both PartySafePlus Online and Scenarios to get credit for full completion?
Yes. According to the IFC Risk Management policy, three-fourths of every chapter has to be PartySafePlus-trained at all times in order to hold events with alcohol. Completion both programs completes this requirement. Within residence halls, event hosts and sober moniters must be PartySafePlus trained to hold events. Additionally, specific residence hall might have additional percentage trained requirements to host events. Please check with your Area Director regarding specifics for your community.
