PREAMBLE

We, the representatives of multicultural fraternities and sororities, similar in structure and background, recognizing the need for coordination in activities and inter-collegiate fraternities and sororities, and in recognizing that there are certain areas of action, cultural programming and support for the underrepresented student community that can best be carried out by the joint efforts of all such organizations, and believing that these needs can best be realized by formal organization in order to facilitate agreement and coordination; we do hereby establish such an organization to work for the welfare of our University and our group and bind ourselves to the provisions of the MGLC constitution and bylaws.

 

MISSION & PURPOSE

We will serve as a model for the underrepresented student community and operate as a united body to effectively advocate the issues and concerns of our organizations and the entire campus community that we serve.

 

The purpose of MGLC will be to positively promote cultural Greek Life as it exists at Cornell University and beyond.
