Greek life members came together yesterday for the New Member Olympics. New members of both fraternities and sororities competed with each other in games like wheelbarrow racing, pass-the-sponge and Hula-Hoop racing. As the sun set on WKU, our photographers captured this event through their lenses. Take a look at what they found.

One event in the Greek Life New Member Olympics was that teams had to pass a sponge full of water all the way down the line without losing as much water as possible to fill another bucket at the end. Whichever team filled their bucket first won the event on Sept. 15, 2022. (Photo by Alena Hines)
