Greeks Take The Lead

Workshop registration Greeks Take the Lead 2019

The Greeks Take the Lead Program is a mandatory workshop for all Greek chapters that are registered student organizations (RSOs). The Greeks Take the Lead Program serves as a way to help fraternity and sorority students feel empowered by providing further education on how they can intervene and end sexual violence in their chapters and greater community. All chapter presidents and risk managers (or another leadership member, if your chapter does not have a risk manager) participate in leadership-based interactive training, and all general members are required to choose a workshop focused on a specialized topic.

Frequently Asked Questions 

• I have a disability and need accommodations for the workshop, what do I do?

  Michigan State University is committed to providing equal opportunity for participation in all programs, services and activities. Accommodations for persons with disabilities may be requested by contacting Lemoine Joseph, Jr., Male Engagement Specialist, at gttl@msu.edu. Requests received will be honored whenever possible.

   

• I am a survivor and attending a workshop seems like it will be too difficult for me, what do I do?

  Contact the program specialist for Greeks Take the Lead at gttl@msu.edu and let them know of your concern.

   

• I attended a SARV workshop, is this the same thing?

  No, Greeks Take the Lead is a specialized training that is a different requirement from your general SARV workshop.

   

• I'm in a sorority or fraternity, but we are not a Registered Organization. What do I do?

  All members of Greek life are encouraged to attend workshops that are part of Greeks Take the Lead. If your chapter is a Registered Student Organization (RSO) you are required to attend a workshop to maintain your RSO status. If you're still unsure of your status or if you need to attend, you may send an email to gttl@msu.edu.

   

• I cannot make it to any of the general workshops. What should I do?

  Greeks Take the Lead is offering an array of workshops on different days and times to accommodate varying schedules. We encourage you to register as soon as possible, as workshops will close once they meet capacity. Do not wait until the last workshop is offered, as it will fill up quickly.

  Please note that more workshops options will be added throughout the semester so please stay on the lookout for updates from the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life or your chapter president.

• Are there any makeups being offered for the general workshops?

  No.

   

• I have several members who are on study abroad or in an internship for the semester and can't make it. What do I do?

  Send a list of members who will be gone during programming to gttl@msu.edu as soon as possible so that your roster reflects who is in your chapter. If you fail to send in these names, this could compromise your RSO status.

   

• Are there any requirements in addition to the general member workshops?
  Yes, two leaders from your chapter (most often, a President and a Risk Manager) must attend at least one of the special leadership trainings provided at the start of the Spring semester in order for your chapter to maintain or regain their RSO status.  Failure to attend these sessions compromises your chapter’s RSO status.
• I registered for a workshop already, but I can no longer attend it or I want to go another workshop. What do I do?
  You can register for another workshop using the sign up form and send an email to the Greeks Take the Lead account (gttl@msu.edu) to inform them of which workshop you plan to attend.
• I have a question that is not listed here.

  Email your question to the Greeks Take the Lead account (gttl@msu.edu), and expect a reply within 2 business days.
