A couple of recent articles on efforts to increase Greek GPAs:

The Panhellenic system at USC is long established. SDT is the most recent addition.

For spring Tri Delta was first in scholarship with a 3.5 GPA. They has 44 women who had over a 3.75 or above. The chapter was also pleased to raise over $23,000 for St. Jude Hospital and other charities.

In 2011 this chapter will celebrate 90 years at USC.
