Greek Life at Central Michigan University has got a new look to it.

Their new Web site cmugreeks.com was started Monday to update their older Web site which Tom Idema, assistant director of Student Life, said wasn’t easy to deal with.

“We just needed a new Web site. We are now able to make changes and updates (quickly) that keeps everyone better informed,” he said.

Idema said with this new Web site not only greeks but perspective greeks can reap the benefits.

“It’s a functional, usable in the center of Greek life,” Idema said.

Lauren Elias, Greek Life assistant, said she is happy with the new Web site.

“It’s very updated, more than the old Web site,” she said. “It’s organized and much cleaner.”

Idema said as soon as the fall semester starts the Web site will be constantly working with updates on events as well as general news for Greeks.

“We will be able to do spotlights, news articles on certain chapters and students,” Idema said. “There is a lot of functionality which is great.”

Idema said the Web site was created by a group that created a Facebook application for sorority recruitment.

The Web site has everything from lists of Greek organizations as well as pictures of their houses, information for parents as well as alumni.
