Interfraternity Council

Since 1909, The National Interfraternity Council (IFC at St. John's) has been serving the men's college fraternity community in Canada and the United States. Through 64 national fraternities, the IFC represents almost 4.5 million alumni and 400,000 college students in over 5,500 chapters or more than 800 college campuses. The IFC advocates the need of fraternities through the enrichment of the Greek experience, advancement, and growth of the fraternities and enhancement of the educational mission of the host institution.  The IFC provides numerous resources and services to member fraternities and college campuses.

At St. John's University, the Interfraternity Council is the governing body of 13 fraternities. Its executive board and cabinet consist of members who were chosen to guide and support the fraternities through academic programming, leadership training, and social guidance.  Each fraternity is required to have a delegate present at the Interfraternity Council meetings held every other week. IFC plans and promotes various activities with the Panhellenic Council and the African & Latino Fraternal/Sororal Alliance (ALFSA) such as Greek Week as well as All-Greek philanthropies and educational workshops to bring the Greeks together and work as a Community.
