We’ve visited New York a few times, and I’ve gone to Houston many times. I’ve always wondered what it would be like if I had grown up in a community like that where you are surrounded by Greek people. I think I really would have enjoyed it and would have grown up a little differently.

About the survey

Over the past year, we’ve been listening to students from one end of the country to the other... From Greek-American and Greek-Greek, to Greek- Irish, Greek-Iranian and even Greek-Chinese — they all say they’ve “got Greek.” Your voice belongs in this conversation. That’s why we’re inviting you to take the Got Greek? survey... [read more]

The Got Greek? National Student Survey is the first national online survey of American university students of Greek ancestry where you can share your views and opinions about your background and how it relates to everything from food and music, to family, friends and dating. You can sign up here to take the Got Greek? online student survey. Participation in the Next Generation Initiative’s national student survey is open to every student of Greek heritage who is a student at a college or university in the United States. Whether you are 1/16th or 100% Greek, this study is about you. So, whether you’re first-, second-, third-, fourth- or even fifth-generation — or if your last name is more like Fey than Stephanopoulos — as long as you are an undergraduate or graduate student of Hellenic heritage studying at a university in the United States — we want to hear how you feel about being (even a little bit) Greek.

THANK YOU!

The Next Generation National Research Study would not be possible without the continuing support of the Zapis Charitable Foundation, and the additional support of the Maliotis Charitable Foundation and others — along with the participation of the more than 50 Hellenic Student Associations and their leaders who have helped make this a truly national study. The Research Study would not exist without the vision and dedication of its creator and director, Stephanie Marudas, who has guided the Study from the outset, and marshaled the efforts of an outstanding team — including the Study’s lead academic advisor Queens College Professor Nicos Alexiou, Queens College graduate Mary Diaz, Queens College student Olivia Tousius, Northwestern Students Katerina Alexopoulos and Tania Karas, University of Pennsylvania graduate Chris Zervoudis, and the contributions of our advisors from around the country, including the initial guidance of the late Professor Charles Moskos of Northwestern University, and assistance from Professors James Dimitriou of the University of Southern California, Alexander Kitroeff of Haverford College, and Yiorgos Anagnostou of Ohio State University. Thanks to all of you!
