How to Choose? | Basic Expectations | Fraternity Terms | Chapter Resources

In an effort to lessen the disparity between fraternity ideals and individual behavior and to personalize these ideals in the daily undergraduate experience, the following basic expectations of fraternity membership have been established:

1. I will know and understand the ideals expressed in my fraternity ritual and will strive to incorporate them in my daily life.

2. I will strive for academic achievement and practice academic integrity.

3. I will respect the dignity of all persons; therefore, I will not physically, mentally, psychologically or sexually abuse or have any human being.

4. I will protect the health and safety of all human beings.

5. I will respect my property and the property of others; therefore, I will neither abuse nor tolerate the abuse of property.

6. I will meet my financial obligations in a timely manner.

7. I will neither use nor support the use of illegal drugs; I will neither misuse nor support the misuse of alcohol.

8. I acknowledge that a clean and attractive environment is essential to both physical and mental health; therefore, I will do all in my power to see that the chapter property is properly cleaned and maintained.

9. I will challenge all my fraternity members to abide by these fraternal expectations and will confront those who violate them.
