Shared Values and Traditions
As members navigate their own experiences, they often find that the values of their Greek life organizations resonate deeply with their personal and familial beliefs.
Delta Gamma member Audrey Rohlfing is a triple legacy. Her mom and two older sisters, Paige and Lily Rohlfing, all graduated from MU and rushed Delta Gamma.
“Our entire motto is, do good, DG. I think that was something that I just really connected with because I have always tried to be a really positive person and do good deeds for other people,” Rohlfing said. “…Small acts of kindness can really make a difference, and that’s something that DG really focuses on as a chapter.”
Similarly, Andrew Montgomery, an MU sophomore in Beta Theta Pi emphasized the importance of shared values within his fraternity. Montgomery’s uncle, father and older brother were all members of Beta Theta Pi.
“My father’s work ethic is a value that is really reflected by the house,” Montgomery said. “I feel like that’s a virtue that is really promoted by everyone in the house.”

Looking to the Future
As students embrace their roles in Greek life as legacies, many express hopes of growing the family tree for future generations.
As members navigate their Greek life journeys, they carry forward the legacies of those who came before them, while also creating their own paths filled with connection, growth and lasting impact.
