This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bentley chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

Last week was Bentley University’s Greek Week, a chance for each chapter to come together and compete in fun challenges.

One of the most entertaining parts of Greek Olympics was watching the Ice Melt Challenge—two brothers from each fraternity had to use their body heat to melt a frozen t-shirt.

Greek Olympics took place on Friday and began with a water balloon toss competition, despite the cold wind!

Thursday’s event was a sculpture-building contest. Each chapter had to collect cans and make a unique sculpture—Alpha Phi won the sorority competition. All of the food was then donated to a local food shelter.

Each chapter received Greek Week t-shirts in a unique color. Everyone wore their shirts on Friday to show their spirit!

Congratulations to the women of Alpha Phi and the brothers of Alpha Gamma Pi, this year’s winning chapters!
