The University of Nevada, Reno is re-evaluating their approach to managing Greek life on campus.

UNR is talking with fraternities and sororities about how it can work together in a positive way, to address issues on campus as well as in its own individual organizations.

At Sundays, Table Top Luncheon, members were able to participate in team building exercises and discussions to further the conversation.

Dean of Students, Kimberly Thomas, says in order to mend what Greek life has become on campus, they need to have an open line of dialogue with each organization.

"Hopefully they will be very honest with us about things they believe have worked, and things they believe don't work. Then give us some suggestions on how we can fix things and make this a better environment and one that they will be proud of," said Thomas.

Through the use of several team building exercises and open discussions analyzing risk management situations facilitated by faculty, students were able to talk to on another and address mutual concerns.

"I think the University does a good job at least within Sorority and Fraternity life getting them to interact with each other and do events together and meet each other," said Edina Goore with Sigma Alpha Epsion Pi.

One student Marisol spoke with says he believes these discussions are important so they can continue to make a positive impact and impression on our youth and community.

"We want to have a good connection with the University which I feel like we're doing and successfully doing right now. As well as the whole community of Reno by doing community service events and trying to make Reno the best that it can be," said Noah Lopez with Nu Alpha Kappa.
