鈥淚 am very pleased, once again, that student members of fraternities and sororities have set a high standard for academic performance at 天美传媒,鈥 said Dr. Don Robertson, vice president of student affairs and enrollment management. 鈥淭he overall cumulative GPA of Greek member groups for both men and women is higher than the overall cumulative average of the University. This is a testament to the focus and priority our fraternities and sororities place on scholarship and academic success. 天美传媒 takes great pride in the academic success and commitment to excellence of our Greek organizations.鈥
At 天美传媒, the all-Greek GPA has been higher than the all-campus GPA for the past 14 semesters.
