One way to find all three of these things is by joining Greek life on campus. Sororities at Grove City give students the chance to meet new people, specifically through the process called Rush. Not only are these groups at Grove City incredible for community within the group, but Greek Life is also amazing for community building with other groups on campus. Samantha Funderlich has experienced this first hand through joining the Sigma Theta Chi. Samantha would recommend joining a sorority because \u201cthey are great for benefiting the community through philanthropy\/charity work, provide you with leadership opportunities, networking through actives and alumni, and above all else: creating fun memories and relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sigma Theta Chi, also referred to as the Sig Thets, is one of eight sororities on Grove City\u2019s campus.
