Greek Organizations + Library = A Good Partnership


A large portion of the third floor at Bracken Library is known as the “Greek floor” because so many members of Ball State’s sororities and fraternities meet there to study and work on projects.


To add color and interest to the walls, we created posters with several sorority and fraternity members shown using resources at the library. The idea went over well with members of the Greek organization, and now it's time to update the posters. We have scheduled a photo shoot for mid-March; we use a large format plotter in-house to create the 24” x 36” posters.

Brittany Blake, a member of Sigma Kappa who also works as an intern with the Office of Student Life, promotes Greek life on the Ball State campus, and she is helping to organize the photo shoot.


“The third floor is a popular area with Greeks,” she said. “I come here with my sisters to work on projects and get things done, and I want to think of ways I can promote the library to others.”
