Yes. Your cerebellum is actually made up of very tightly folded outer layer of grey matter, and you can find the white matter lies underneath it.
Synapses are seen more in grey matter because dendrites meet with axonites in grey matter and dendrite is a part of grey matter.
It's seperate from the cerebral hemispheres, sitting just under them. It has a similar simplified structure in that it is highly folded with a grey matter cortex and a white matter core. It has also been linked in many cognitive functions, but it's most researched is its role in movement.
one's grey and one's white.....they're both matter though...
From their content. Grey matter mainly contains cell bodies while white contains mainly axons

In the cerebral cortex there are 6 layers of neurons (grey matter).
The outer section of the cerebrum is known as the cerebral cortex. It is the grey matter of the brain.
The cerebellum looks like the cerebrum. They are both grey wrinkly and are moist.
The smallest cells in the human body are the Granule/Golgi neurons in the granular layer (innermost layer of grey matter) of Cerebellum.
White matter is found in the inside of the brain and the spinal cord. Grey matter is found in most parts of the brain including the cerebellum and brain stem.
The brain comprises left and right hemisheres. Each of which has a cortex (grey matter) and white fibre tracts (white matter). The hemispheres share common midbrain and brainstem components and also a cerebellum.
To oversimplify it significantly with an analogy, the grey matter is data processing neurons and the white matter is the myelin insulated cabling axons of those neurons that interconnects them to exchange data. Myelin is fatty, giving the white color to the white matter.
The grey matter on a spinal cord is on the spinal roots.
grey matter- the centre area of the spinal cord that contains cell bodies, their axons and their dendrites. white matter- the outer layer of the spinal cord that contains only myelin coated axons.
one of the basic anatomical difference between these two structures is in there numbers of layers of grey matter. cerebrum has 6 layers of distinct cells in its cortex where as berebellum has only 3 layes of neronal cells in its cortex. other difference that i could come up with was this that they both have difference in their vasculature. cerebellum has a very high vasculature as compared to cerebrum.
