PAST AND PRESENT INTERFRATERNAL LEADERS IN GOVERNMENT

Fraternities and sororities teach leadership and service, two tenants key to civic engagement, so it should come as no surprise that many men and women involved in political service at its highest levels are also members of fraternal organizations.

Additionally, there are a significant number of fraternity men who have served as President of the United States of America with approximately 44 percent of U.S. Presidents having held fraternity membership. The tables below identify the men and women currently serving in a political office and their affiliation, as well as former Presidents, Vice Presidents and other notable political figures.
