welcome To

The UT Austin experience is life-changing and filled with opportunities to apply your talents in an unlimited number of ways, including academics, leadership, involvement and service. In addition to providing community, sororities and fraternities promote scholarship, ethical leadership and civic engagement. Each sorority and fraternity is founded on a set of core values that guide the purpose of the organization and the development of its members. These principles include academic excellence, community service and philanthropy, leadership development as well as sisterhood/brotherhood. The sorority and fraternity community contributes significantly to the UT Austin student experience by offering opportunities for students to make meaningful, lifelong connections. Sorority and Fraternity Life in the Office of the Dean of Students offers a wealth of information, support and services that we encourage you to engage. Consider the sorority and fraternity community, and take the time to get to know members. Learning about their unique experiences can help you make an informed decision when choosing sorority and fraternity life as a way to make a positive impact at UT Austin. All the best, Soncia Reagins-Lilly, Ed.D. Senior Associate Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students Douglas Garrard, Ed.D.

our community's foundation Academic Excellence Every sorority and fraternity wants its members to excel academically. Many promote academic excellence through supervised study halls, incentive programs, study skill workshops, professor dinners, and tutoring. All organizations have GPA expectations for their members to stay in good standing.

Service and Philanthropy Giving back is a cornerstone of the sorority and fraternity experience. Whether through direct service, philanthropy, or a combination of both, each organization gives back in its own unique way.

Leadership Development What Starts Here Changes the World! The sorority and fraternity community has consistently provided opportunities to develop skills, enhance communication, navigate group dynamics, and understand teamwork. Leadership is at the heart of the sorority and fraternity experience.

Community Building One of the most celebrated aspects of the sorority and fraternity community is the people you meet and friends you keep. As a member of a sorority or fraternity, friendships make a large campus feel smaller and offer a home away from home.

A thriving community focused on leadership, scholarship, and service, the Texas Asian Pan-Hellenic Council (TAPC) promotes Asian-American awareness. With 5 sororities and 2 fraternities, this community of leaders has established itself as a pillar of involvement and strong values.

Why join? Joining an Asian interest organization allows Asian Americans (and those interested in the community) an opportunity to build strong relationships with each other through sisterhood and brotherhood.

Since 1904, the University Panhellenic Council (UPC) has been at the center of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leadership on campus. It promotes involvement through leadership, academic achievement, philanthropic and community service initiatives, as well as lasting sisterhood. There are 14 sororities in UPC and each has incredible opportunities to get involved. All UPC chapters have something to offer you. How do I join? Panhellenic Formal Recruitment is a very structured process. After registering online in the summer and working on your recommendation letters, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have the opportunity to attend several events during formal recruitment at each chapter house. Throughout the week, by a process of mutual selection, chapters and potential new members will narrow their choices. A majority of women obtain membership through this process. However, qualifying chapters may also have opportunities to join outside of this period and throughout the year.

22 Sorority and Fraternity Information Guide | 2013

What are the deadlines for UPC Recruitment? UPC recruitment registration will be available online beginning May 20, 2013 and will conclude on August 12, 2013 at 5 p.m. To learn more about UPC Recruitment, visit deanofstudents.utexas.edu/sfl/ join_upc_recruit.php. What are the benefits of membership? There are numerous benefits to joining a UPC sorority. Not only are there incredible leadership opportunities within both the chapter and council, but the members also have the highest GPAs in the community. In fall 2012, 79% of Panhellenic women had a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Who is eligible for recruitment? A woman is eligible to participate in recruitment and join a sorority if she is a regularly matriculated student at UT Austin. Any student who is enrolled and has been granted full-time status may participate, however each UPC organization has specific eligibility requirements.

UPC Events Race for the Cure — UPC creates a team to raise awareness about breast cancer. The council coordinates over 200 volunteers to participate in this fundraiser for Susan G. Komen For the Cure. Greek Grub — Letters, Lunch, and Friends. Every Spring UPC rallies all sororities and fraternities at UT Austin to wear their Greek letters, enjoy good company, and grab a bite to eat. It’s all in the name of building community.

We, as fraternity women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. —NPC Creed

advice from students “ ” “ ” “

I carry a water bottle with me and fill it up at water fountains while on the go.

Make sure to get a good night sleep before a major exam or presentation.

If I can’t find a designated driver for the night, I make sure to take the E-bus or a cab when going out.

“ “ “ “ “

”

Eating healthy in college can be difficult, so at least eat one piece of fruit a day.

Take a jog at Clarkfield, play some basketball at Gregory Gym, or just stay active to relieve some stress and stay healthy.

”

Plan out your class schedule, tests and meetings in a calendar and use it. You should look at it every day, then review each week.

”

Get to know your professors and go to office hours.

”

Looking for a place to study? Try the Natural Science library in the Tower. It’s beautiful and always quiet.

family guide N

ot only is this guide an important resource for students exploring sororities and fraternities, it’s also a great tool for parents, guardians, and family members. We hope the following pages will answer your questions and provide information. The sorority and fraternity experience promotes individual, organizational, and community development. It also has a lot of tradition. Many sororities and fraternities designate their organization by using letters from the Greek alphabet, which actually have special meaning to members. Every sorority and fraternity has unique mottos, Rituals, and creeds that unite the members in sisterhood or brotherhood, growth, achievement, service to the community, responsibility, and leadership. At the end of the day, all sororities and fraternities are based on values, ethics, and standards. We know that students and families often have questions about sororities and fraternities. Below, we’ve provided some answers to frequently asked questions.

Frequently Asked Questions What is Recruitment? Rush? Intake? Recruitment/rush/intake is defined as any sorority or fraternity activity that seeks to add new members to a chapter. Some Greek-letter organizations host recruitment throughout the year, while others recruit during a specified time period each semester or year. Regardless of when it occurs, any chapter activity that serves the purpose of adding new members to the chapter constitutes recruitment and must be in compliance with organizational policies, institutional rules and state laws.

28 Sorority and Fraternity Information Guide | 2013

What are the benefits of joining? The benefits include building leadership skills, support with academics, and endless opportunities to engage in service. The sorority and fraternity experience is an excellent training ground for aspiring leaders. Many chapters organize tutoring programs, host study hours, and offer a variety of educational resources. Some offer scholarships and awards to celebrate members’ and non-members’ academic success. When do students typically join? 90% of the students that join a sorority or fraternity do so during their first semester in college. Alternatively, some organizations require that students have a UT Austin GPA and credit hours before joining. Students, including transfers, sophomores, juniors, and seniors, also have the opportunity to join the sorority and fraternity community. How will joining a sorority or fraternity affect my student academically? Academic success is important to each sorority and fraternity. They organize study hours, schedule study skill workshops, and encourage the use of faculty office hours. All organizations have a GPA requirement to remain a member in good standing. Which sorority or fraternity is the best one to join? There are nearly 70 Greek-letter organizations on-campus. Each organization provides unique experiences, emphasizes values, service, philanthropy, and leadership within the community. Who is the “best” is a personal choice and it should be based on where a student feels most comfortable.

What does it mean to be a New Member?

Support or Assistance

The new member period is a time for students to bond with other new members, active members, and learn about the organization’s history and goals. Some new member classes elect officers, hold weekly meetings, organize study halls and plan activities.

Whether it’s stress, illness, or roommate issues, college students may need help throughout their time at The University of Texas at Austin. The Office of the Dean of Students can provide support and assistance. We encourage you to reach out and contact us. We can connect students to the appropriate resources.

safety education and hazing prevention Responsibility

What Is Hazing?

Sororities and fraternities are held to high standards by the national organization, their advisors, and the institution. There are online modules, workshops, and national training sessions that prepare members to be responsible and behave in a manner that reflects their values.

Hazing is commonly defined as any action taken or situation created to produce mental or physical discomfort, embarrassment, harassment or ridicule. The state of Texas and The University of Texas at Austin have adopted anti-hazing legislation or policies. The fact that a person consented or acquiesced in a hazing activity is not a defense under the law. If you are hazed you must, according to state law, report it to the Office of the Dean of Students. Organizations that haze are not worth your consideration and are dangerous.

Incidents and Concerns The safety and wellness of students is our priority. If you hear of incidents of hazing, sexual assault, alcohol, injury, or bias, please report them to the Office of the Dean of Students. A report can be filed anonymously through a variety of channels.
