Ambassadors are selected through a formal application and selection process. Their primary focus is to promote the benefits of FSL membership, positively represent the community, and challenge negative perceptions. During Red Raider Orientation, ambassadors play a key role in hosting the annual FSL Meet & Greet and engaging with prospective members. They also lead informational sessions for potential students and facilitate leadership development and risk management workshops for FSL organizations at Texas Tech.

EDUCATION IN THE COMMUNITY
Clay R. Warren Risk Education
Clay’s Story
In September of 2002, Clay R Warren was traveling back to Lubbock from a fraternity-sponsored event when the driver of his vehicle fell asleep at the wheel. Clay died due to injuries sustained from the car accident. Clay was a vivacious young man who loved life, his family, Texas Tech University and his fraternity. He had only been at Texas Tech for five weeks before he passed away.
Why Risk Education?
After Clay’s death his parents, Freada and Mark, became advocates of providing risk management education to other college students. Their message is simple. No parent or loved one should have to go through what they went through.
The Warren’s teamed up with Senator Robert Duncan, the former Chancellor of Texas Tech University to create legislation that would require risk management education for all student organizations in the state of Texas. The early efforts of the Clay R. Warren Risk Management Education were created in a collaboration with the Fraternity & Sorority Life staff in the fall of 2006.
CRW Risk Education Events
CRW Risk Education Trainings are hosted each spring to equip organization leadership with tools and skills focused around prevention models, problem identification, response, self-reporting, accountability, and the Ladder of Risk.
Leadership Development Education
Leadership Speaker Series
All members of the fraternity and sorority community are offered two leadership development speakers each year. Active and new members from each council are able to attend and engage in relevant and timely topical information.
FSL Leadership Summit
Leadership Summit is a multi-day institute style learning experience for fraternity and sorority presidents and council executive boards on Texas Tech’s campus. Drawing on elements from programs like UIFI®, LeaderShape®, iLead® and other leadership academies across the country –TTU FSL seeks to elevate our current community through a focus on leadership development, community-building and critical thinking skills. Leadership Summit is designed to bring fraternity & sorority leaders together, working towards common goals and ensuring the success of the Fraternity & Sorority community.

The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) is a collective of nine historically African American fraternities and sororities, commonly referred to as the “Divine Nine.” At Texas Tech, the NPHC currently consists of four of the nine organizations The council promotes unity and collaboration through forums, meetings, and campus-wide programming. NPHC organizations value community service, social action, academics, education, and social gatherings, while coming together to support common causes and uplift their communities
HOW DO I JOIN?
Each NPHC organization has its own expectations and membership intake process. NPHC organizations do not recruit in the typical fashion; instead, chapters host events throughout the year that are open to the campus community These events allow interested students to get to know the chapters and learn about their programmatic goals. At the beginning of each semester, NPHC chapters also participate in Meet the Greeks, a signature event where all member organizations come together to introduce their chapters and share their history, values, and traditions. If you are interested in a specific organization, it is highly encouraged that you exercise discretion expressing interest directly and privately to current members is a key aspect of showing genuine interest in joining an NPHC organization.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
All NPHC organizations have national membership guidelines that they must follow. These guidelines include a minimum GPA requirement specific to each chapter, community service hours and proof of enrollment as an undergraduate student at Texas Tech.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between the four councils?
The largest difference between the four councils is the way each recruits. While MGC & NPHC conduct an individualized recruitment process unique to each chapter, CPH & IFC conduct a collective recruitment process run by their respective elected recruitment teams. The second largest difference between the four councils is the reason each was founded. From academic networking to providing a safe space for minoritized students on college campuses, all were created to serve a different purpose. We encourage any interested member of our community to research all four councils, their unique purposes, and what they value.
Will joining a fraternity or sorority effect my academics?
Sororities and fraternities serve as a great resource for students academically through study hours and tutoring programs. Most fraternities and sororities have a GPA requirement for initial membership and to remain active members in the organization. These requirements are often higher than the general campus average. Organizations often regulate study hours, maintain resource files, reward those who do well academically and help those experiencing difficulties. The Office of Fraternity & Sorority Life releases a grade report with each individual chapter ranking cumulative grade point average every fall and spring.
Are chapter members required to live in fraternity/sorority housing?
Though a few of our fraternities and sororities have lodges near campus, they are non-residential houses. The lodges are mostly used as meeting and study spaces for the chapters.
What is the time commitment when you join a fraternity or sorority?
Typically, the first semester is the most time consuming for members, due to each chapter’s new member education process. In addition, members can expect to attend weekly chapter meetings, study hours and the occasional philanthropy or service event.
I’m having a hard time figuring out which chapter to join. How
do
I decide?
Each of the fraternities and sororities at Texas Tech have a rich history tied to their individual values and traditions. Interested members should research the organizations and look for values and attributes that meet their interests. It is encouraged to visit the national and local websites for additional information, and the Office of Fraternity & Sorority Life is available to answer any questions prospective members have about our chapters.
