New Member Education Resources

Effective new member education provides a foundation of education about theÌýfraternity & sororityÌýorganization’s purpose, values, and current realities and allows members to make meaning of their role in the organization.ÌýThe selection of new members and the ways in which fraternities and sororities educate and prepare these new members for a lifetime of involvement in a fraternity and sorority is the lifeblood of Greek-LetteredÌýorganizations. Chapters should diligently examine when and how intake or recruitment is conducted as well as the practices by which interested members are prepared for membership.
