Culturally Based and Divine Nine
Culturally Based Fraternities and Sororities
Creighton’s culturally based fraternities help students find community and experience the rich culture of the National Panhellenic Council (NPHC), National Multicultural Greek Council (NMGC), National APIDA Pan-Hellenic Association (NAPA), and National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO). These organizations are focused on the pillars of education, philanthropy, and history, and members develop relationships and skills that go beyond their college years.
Culturally Based Fraternal Council (CBFC)
The Culturally Based Fraternal Council (CBFC) is the coordinating body of several of Crieghton's fraternities an sororities. Its objectives are to:
- Support the activities and involvement of participating CBFC members
- Promote the educational, philanthropic and historical focus of participating CBFC members
- Advocate for a process that culturally based fraternal organizations can follow when seeking recognition at Creighton University
- Promote diversity awareness, inclusion and integration among the CBFC, IFC and PHC members
