Panhellenic Association
All students who join a Whitman College sorority immediately become members of the Whitman College Panhellenic Association. By uniting together under one organization, the sororities are able to create a climate of unity and support among the four groups. Through Panhellenic, the sorority women increase their resources and are able to focus on issues of mutual concern such as sexual violence prevention, party safety and diversity, equity and inclusion.
The Panhellenic Association is led by the Executive Officers, comprised of women elected from each of the four sororities. The Council meets weekly throughout the academic year to plan activities and conduct business that is of mutual concern to the sororities. Philanthropy projects, scholarship desserts, public speakers, educational lectures, social functions, Greekend and membership recruitment are just a few of the many activities that Panhellenic coordinates each year.
Whitman Panhellenic Code of Ethics
We, the sorority women of Whitman College, promote service and character development within individual fraternity and Panhellenic activities. We encourage these through close interactions and intimate friendships. Together we commit ourselves to promoting the interests of the s orority & fraternity system on this campus and in the greater community. All fraternities of Whitman College shall seek to foster exemplary behavior, academic excellence, social consciousness, mutual respect, trust and friendship.
The Panhellenic Creed
We, as Undergraduate Members of women’s fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities.
We, as Fraternity Women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.
