The Interfraternity Council (IFC) serves as the governing council for 11 of our 18 national fraternities. This council was established in order to form a more cohesive interaction among the existing organizations within the UR chapters that are members of the North-American Interfraternity Conference. Its main purpose is to ensure harmony among the University community and promote the experience that brotherhood can offer.

The Multicultural Greek Council (MGC) was established in the spring of 2000. Each member organization of the MGC has a specific cultural basis, which is the defining quality of this council. Although each fraternity and sorority within the MGC has an individual cultural focus, none of the member organizations are culturally exclusive by any means. The 15 UR chapters of the MGC include members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, the National Association for Latino Fraternal Organizations, and the National APIA Panhellenic Association.
