On April 12, 2014, University of Pennsylvania's Office of Fraternity Sorority Affairs will host a one-day symposium for ALL Philadelphia-area high school and college students, and administrators. The 2014 Multicultural Greek Symposium will afford individuals a networking opportunity while enhancing their leadership skills through presentations, workshops, discussions, and panels on topics related to Greek life and social responsibility.

• Explore personal leadership values and ethics
• Share best practices in leading with integrity
• Have cross-campus conversations on challenges that stifle cross-council collaborations
• Walk away with useful strategies to implement within your own campuses for the betterment of the Philadelphia community
