Thank you to those who volunteered to help with the high school state baseball, softball and track events that took place on campus recently. There were more than 30,000 athletes, coaches and spectators in attendance. Volunteers gave over 5,000 people golf cart rides and distributed more than 3,000 bottles of water. Additionally, Wichita State Connect served as the recovery station where attendees could relax in lounge furniture, play yard games and enjoy the A/C between games and events.

Thank you again to all the volunteers for helping welcome these visitors to campus and providing a positive experience. Mark your calendars for next years events, May 30-31, 2025.

Fraternity and sorority life is dedicated to creating a positive and inclusive environment that fosters the growth of responsible and engaged citizens. As fraternities and sororities continue to support and promote Greek life on campus, they encourage all community members to engage with and learn more about the various organizations and their valuable contributions to the university. They are confident in the collective potential of community to continue fostering a strong and vibrant fraternity and sorority community.
