PASSPORT to Panhellenic
Passport to Panhellenic
The Panhellenic Association is the advocate group for women's only Greek organizations, devoted to creating a community of respect, diversity, creativity, and integrity
The Panhellenic Association wants to help create a community of trust throughout all of Greek life by illustrating advocacy, support and strengthening the sorority experience.
The theme of the 2022 fall primary recruitment process is "Passport to Panhellenic." Our goal is to show Potential New Members as well as remind chapter members what a strong sisterhood looks like As women apart of the Greek community, we uplift, support & honor each other. Sisterhood is about forming lifelong connections, holding each other accountable, being able to count on others & being counted on to make a difference in the community This is an opportunity to interact with women from all majors, grade levels, socioeconomic statuses, diversity of thought, racial backgrounds and exemplify the core strength of sisterhood, which is "acceptance of all". From these interactions, our community is made stronger This is sisterhood
We, officers of the Panhellenic Association at Indiana State, would like to promote and advocate all sisterhood and siblinghood organizations within the Fraternity and Sorority Life at Indiana State The councils that oversee these organizations are the National Pan Hellenic Council (NPHC), the Interfraternity Council (IFC), and a Athenian Council (AC)
Sincerely, Officers ofthe PanhellenicAssociation, 1

y (PNMs) as they navigate primary recruitment Rho Gammas, or recruitment counselors, serve as a confidant and guide as PNMs search for organizations that meet their needs and match their values Rho Gammas fully remove themselves from their sororities and do not reveal their affiliation during the recruitment process. This enables them to focus on Potential New Members' questions and concerns The Rho Gammas offer valuable information regarding Fraternity & Sorority Life, academic classes, and other opportunities available to you as a member of Indiana State University. PNMs should make the most of their relationship with their Rho Gammas 9

Recruitment is a process that requires a reasonable commitment of time and effort. The Panhellenic Association expects that each PNM will attend every round of recruitment and will attend each party that they are invited to by any given chapter. If a PNM cannot attend recruitment events, they must communicate with their Rho Gamma in advance They will have the opportunity to fill out a absence form and to submit one letter per recruitment round they will miss, which will go to all chapters she was invited back to. 1
A PNM must contact one of her Rho Gammas if they wish to no longer participant from recruitment and must complete a withdrawal evaluation
3
PNMs must report any violation of this requirement to their Rho Gammas, Panhellenic Executive Officers, or the Fraternity & Sorority Life Office
PNMs must wear the provided name tag throughout each recruitment round.. It is important for Panhellenic to know your name and how you would like to be identity as. Wearing your nametag can aid in this process.
2
PNMs may communicate with Chapter Members outside recruitment events. However, PNMs shall not discuss recruitment with chapter members in any form (written, verbal, etc.) outside of recruitment rounds.
Potential New Member Responsibilities
4 12
13
Potential
New Member Bill of Rights A potential new member has the right to... Be treated as an individual Be fully informed about the recruitment process Be treated with respect Be treated as a capable and mature person without being patronized Be fully informed about the NPC Unanimous Agreements implicit in the membership recruitment acceptance binding agreement (MRABA) signing process Ask questions and receive true and objective answers from recruitment counselors and members Ask how and why and receive straight answers Have and express opinions to recruitment counselors Have inviolable confidentiality when sharing information with recruitment counselors Make informed choices without undue pressure from others Make one’s own choice and decision and accept full responsibility for the results of that decision Have a positive, safe and enriching recruitment and new member experience
Potential new members should be fully aware of the financial obligations of membership before accepting a bid. It is to the PNM’s advantage to ask questions during recruitment events if there are questions about finances
Potential new members understand that any breach of this agreement could result to disciplinary action.
Respect for the membership recruitment process is expected at all times This includes respect toward chapter members, recruitment counselors, Panhellenic officers, faculty, staff and other potential new members. PNMs should refrain from sexist, homophobic, racist or otherwise abhorrent conversations I understand my rights under the PNM Bill of Rights and if I experience discrimination I know how to report it to the College Panhellenic.
A potential new member (PNM) shall attend recruitment orientation and all membership recruitment events for which she receives invitations
POTIENTIAL NEW MEMBER CODE OF ETHICS 14
Potential new members understand that if they sign a Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding Agreement (MRABA) after preference round, they are bound to that document and the chapter that extends them a bid. This means that the PNM is ineligible for an invitation to membership from another NPC organization until the next primary recruitment on that campus This is accomplished by abiding to the following agreements:
Membership recruitment is a substance free process. Women may not use or be in the presence of drugs and alcohol during the membership recruitment period Violation of this rule will result in immediate removal form the membership recruitment process
Potential new members as well as sorority members must do their best to not touch or shake hands in any way This helps prevent the spread of illness
Potential new members agree to treat the chapter videos and virtual recruitment parties as confidential. Potential new members will not share any video or virtual recruitment event, including a video in its entirety, or recordings, clips, screen shots, and/or quotes from video or virtual recruitment event
“We, as Undergraduate Members of women’s fraternities, stand for maintenance of fine standards for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.”
15
Hazing Policy
Failure to abide by the expectations stated above will result in the review of your status as a potential new member. The first offense will result in a warning from Panhellenic Recruitment Staff The second offense will result in being released from the 2020 Panhellenic Recruitment process. If the first offense is determined to be severe enough by the Panhellenic Recruitment Staff, a potential new member could be subject to an immediate release from the Panhellenic Recruitment process
Hazing in any form at Indiana State University is prohibited Hazing is prohibited in connection with the activities of students and student organizations Hazing shall be defined as any conduct which subjects another person, whether physically, mentally, emotionally, or psychologically, to anything that may abused, degrade, or intimidate the person as a condition of association with an organization or group (formal or informal), regardless of the person’s consent or lack of consent”
Alcohol Policy Policies regarding the use and distribution of alcohol can be found in the Code of Student Conduct Panhellenic Association planned or sponsored events shall be alcohol free Each College Panhellenic Association shall prohibit the use of alcoholic beverages in membership recruitment and Bid Day activities. The recruitment counselors and Panhellenic officers are required to abstain from alcohol use prior to and throughout the recruitment proces Additionally, members of fraternities and sororities must comply with local, state, and federal laws, as well as policies outlined by their national organization, advisor(s), and housing board (if applicable)
A legacy may be defined differently by each NPC organization. In general, a legacy is a daughter, sister, or granddaughter of an initiated member of an NPC sorority. A sorority is not obligated to offer a bid to a legacy, nor is a potential new member obligated by anyone to commit to a chapter where they are a legacy The PNM should not make their decision solely based on their legacy status, but on where they are most comfortable 16

Answer the following questions.
Round 1
Following Round 1
List some qualities about yourself that would be an asset to a sorority For a minute, assume that you don’t receive an invitation from your favorite chapters
Expectations
It is possible that you will not receive every invitation you desire What will you do if this happens? You might want to discuss this possibility with your Rho Gamma.
At which sororities did you feel the most comfortable? Why?
Don’t worry if you don’t have time for in depth conversations Don’t be afraid to ask your members questions about her sorority or sorority life in general Be sure to tell her about yourself as well Each sorority wants to get to know as much about you as possible. Also, be careful of first impressions, they can be misleading. Remember that the parties are short, so if you feel you need another look to decide, take it. Most importantly, have fun and be yourself Remember, the sororities want you to like them as much as you want them to like you!
21
The purpose of this round is to introduce you to all nine Panhellenic sororities in our Greek community You will visit each sorority and get to know a little about the chapter. One woman will meet you at the door, and act as your hostess while you are visiting her chapter. You may be introduced to multiple women in each chapter. During this round, you will visit each sorority for twenty five minutes. You may feel a little overwhelmed because the pace of this day is so fast This round is just meant to give you and the chapter an opportunity to get to know a little about each other
We’d like you to focus on the two sororities that currently give you the least positive feelings List those on a separate sheet of paper Next to each one, write down the people there whom you liked, the attitudes they had, and the ways the chapter was able to make a positive impression on you.
Conversation Suggestions
At which sororities did you get to discuss things that are most important to you?
Make another of the talents you have that you could use to contribute to the sorority.
Answer the following questions.
22
During these two rounds, communication is key. Conversations are longer, more meaningful, and more in depth You should be looking for certain attributes you want in your sorority and sorority sisters Scholarship, sincerity, friendliness, and adaptability are all strong attributes that are emphasized during this round Listen carefully to decide if the achievements and activities they speak about are also important aspects of your college goals. Ask the hostess about her sorority. It is important to also keep your values in mind during these rounds.
Typically, each of these rounds is about either sisterhood or philanthropy. You will partake in activities and conversations that will help you to understand and appreciate each chapter’s philanthropic contributions locally and nationwide During these rounds, you will also be given the opportunity to look closer at each chapter’s personality and to become better acquainted with members of the chapters
In which chapters do you think these could be utilized?
Conversation Suggestions
Round 2 & 3
Expectations
Make a list of the qualities you admire in your closest friends. Now, make a list of the sororities you visited today. Do you feel each chapter you attended exhibits those qualities?
For a minute, let’s assume that you don’t receive an invitation from your favorite chapters. We’d like you to focus on the three sororities that currently give you the least positive feelings. List them on a separate sheet of paper. Also, make a list of the good things you were able to notice about the sorority as well as the people you liked there. List the skills and abilities you have that you would like to share with a sorority.
Following Round 2 & 3
Conversations will allow you to learn more about the chapter member and programs that can enhance your Indiana State experience.
For a minute, let’s assume that you don’t receive an invitation from your favorite chapters. We’d like you to list all chapters that you visited tonight. Make a list of the ways that these sororities could contribute to your college experience.
After the preference, please consider the following questions to help you determine your choices.
I would be happy to participate in this chapter’s philanthropy because it is interesting to me

List each of the chapters you will visit for preference. Read each statement below as it relates to each. Respond yes, no, or unsure.
I would be happy to participate in this chapter’s activities on campus. This sorority seems open to listening to the ideas of its members and willing to discuss important issues
The amount of time that I would be required to spend participating in chapter activities is reasonable. This sorority has an environment that I believe will encourage me to develop my talents as well as my new skills
I feel comfortable talking with the members of this sorority about things that are important to me
This sorority has members that share my recreational and leisure activities
I can be myself when I am with the members of this sorority
This sorority seems like a group that would support me as I progress through college.
This sorority has members with the same academic interests as me and would help me keep up with my studies
The members of this sorority seem to get along well, and I think I would fit in well there Being a member of this sorority can positively contribute to my college experience. I have qualities that would make me an asset to this sorority. I share the same values as this sorority
Would I be happy supporting and working for their philanthropy?
Would I be happy to be a lifetime member of this organization?
Does the chapter provide an environment that will encourage me to grow, learn new skills, and become a more educated person?
In general, if your feelings about at least some aspects of the chapter are somewhat negative, this may cause you not to be truly happy as a member there. If you think you want to talk about this with someone, please grab your Rho Gamma or a PA Executive Board member to discuss your concerns. If you chose “not sure” as an answer for any sorority, these are things you still need more information on. Use these questions as a guide for some questions to ask as you attend the preference party of that sorority.
Are the members interested in the same things as I am?
Does the chapter seem to be open to new ideas and care about individual members? Is there a commitment to academic excellence? Can they help me with my studies?
Are there members with whom I can share things that are important to me?
Do the chapter's values align with mine?
Do I see myself as a member of this chapter?
Are the financial requirements within my means?

Sorority members exhibit a high level of commitment to and place a special emphasis on academics Members benefit from programs that provide supervised study periods and peer tutoring Additionally, they learn time management skills and how to prioritize responsibilities Each sorority also requires certain minimum GPAs of its members. All of the chapters, as well as Panhellenic, place a great deal of importance on encouraging, developing, maintaining, and rewarding academic success.
LEADERSHIP & INTEGRITY
26
A strong tradition shared by all of Indiana State’s sororities is the support of chosen philanthropies and service oriented projects on the local, national, and international levels Sorority women on Indiana State’s campus volunteer and raise money for worthy causes Our organizations also support local charities and participate in a wide variety of service projects throughout the year.
The Greek community offers a wide variety of opportunities for women to develop leadership skills and find a venue for campus and community involvement in the many organizations in their chapter and on Indiana State’s campus outside the Greek community. Sorority women can be found in the Student Government Association, Residential Life staff, The Statesman staff, as well as academic and leadership honorariums, just to name a few.
PHILANTHROPY & SERVICE
SISTERHOOD & FRIENDSHIP
SCHOLARSHIP & ACADEMICS
The goal of the sorority community is to provide a variety of co curricular programs to expose members to a wide range of opportunities, including social activities. You will be able to enjoy chapter retreats, sisterhood activities, philanthropic activities, and formals in the company of your new sisters The development of these relationships can lead to lasting friendships and a lifetime of memories

Athenian Council at Indiana State University is the home to three fraternal organizations. Two of these organizations are members of the National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO) — Alpha Psi Lambda and Gamma Phi Omega and the third is a gender inclusive literary society Alpha Delta Phi Society. Each organization oversees its own unique recruitment and intake process. Organizations will host events and activities during the first few weeks of each semester to promote themselves on campus. Interested individuals should attend those events, learn more about the organization, and meet the current members. If selected for membership, individuals will receive an invitation to join, known as a "bid" and begin a membership education period prior to being inducted/initiated as a full and active member. We are excited to establish this fourth council at ISU! For more information, please visit the FSL website (www.indstate.edu/ac).
