What is a Fraternity?
Fraternity
It's not a club. It's not a party. It's a challenge and a promise. It's a million moments of truth. It's old and it's new. It's a gift entrusted to us to cherish and then give away. It's a shared mission. It's a lifelong expectation. It's a daily call to action. It's an ancient tradition. It's a future of opportunity. It's a chance to matter. It's a choice. A daily choice to be more.
Brotherhood
It's far more than friendship. It's way more than buddies. It's a shared cause. It's a common purpose. It's a commitment to helping each other live a better life. It's trust and also a promise. It's a lifelong vow to help me become all that I'm destined to be. It's a mutual understanding that each member has chosen to be more than "just another guy". Lastly, it's the shared struggle of becoming the men we are destined to be.
A Fraternity Man
We are MORE. We are more gentlemanly. We are more academically successful. We are more charitable. We are more philanthropic. We are more fun. We are more caring and vulnerable with our friends. We are more values-centered. We are more confident. We are more involved. We are more athletic. We are more enthusiastic. We are more socially adept. We are more curious. We are more likely to raise our hands. We are more committed to our relationships. We are more honorable. We are more engaged. WE ARE MORE.
Why Join?
Academics
Each respected fraternity on campus understands and values the importance of grades for each of its members. The first priority of a college student is to get an education and with the right fraternal experience this priority can not only be reached but excelled. Some major factors to academic success such as peer tutoring, study hours, scholarship opportunities, and upperclassman counseling are readily available.
Leadership
Within the structure of a fraternity a member is “in charge” or held responsible for a specific job or an event, not only allowing but forcing the member to become accountable and a leader to inspire his chapter to not only participate but dominate the event. Along with positions IFC, UTC, and the individual chapters host leadership workshops to transform members into leaders.
Social Activities
Throughout the year each of the fraternities and sororities participates in numerous social activities such as home coming, greek show, date parties, philanthropy events, and formals. These activities are a great way to meet new people and build lasting bonds and friendship.
Career Networking
In this slow economy, the job market has become increasingly competitive. With this increase of competition it is critical to have an edge that sets you not only apart but ahead of the rest. A fraternal experience can provide this with the values, morals, leadership, and team working skills learned. Being able to state you were in a fraternity on a resume can be the difference in getting the job or not. Also a fraternity offers many more resources such as alumni, national newsletters and letters of recommendation. Joining a fraternity is an investment for your future.
