Dear Potential New Members,

I hope you are enjoying your adventures into college thus far. At this point in your college career you have made a lot of exceptional choices. These choices will quickly turn into the stepping stones of your future.

You will soon be creating bonds and friendships with people you have never met and may only have a few things in common with, such as your roommate, lab partner, coffee house barista, fellow classmates, professors, and the list goes on and on. I look back at my first year of college in awe of the relationships I have built; most of them have only one common factor – Arkansas Tech. I hope you all grow to love and appreciate our university the way I do, and take advantage of the opportunities you are given here. One of these opportunities you have already taken a hold of!

Sorority recruitment is like nothing else, and the opportunities do not stop even after bid day. You will be given the opportunity to make best friends, to maintain our community, to aid in a philanthropy, to achieve your own academic goals and career goals, to lead, and most importantly, to find love in university life while creating a new home for yourself away from home. These opportunities are what bring each and every member of sorority life together at Arkansas Tech – so get excited!

The next few days of fun are headed your way, and soon you will start to see what all the fuss is really about. As the President of the College Panhellenic Council I wish you luck, and I pray for your encouragement to be endless over these next four years. As for our council in general, we all want to help and be there for you throughout this journey, so don’t feel shy! Ask questions! Get involved! Be you, and be proud!

Sincerely,

Tatum HoltCollege Panhellenic Council President

Welcome To Arkansas Tech University!

We are so thrilled that you have chosen to make Tech your new home, and better yet participate in sorority recruitment!

As vp of recruitment, I’d like to challenge each and every one of you to keep an open mind, positive attitude, and most of all, listen to your heart! With these things, you will have the best experience while making one of the greatest decisions of your life. I would also like to challenge you to understand the commitment of sorority membership and discover what you are looking to gain from going greek. Participating in sorority recruitment parallels with deciding what university to attend; because both decisions affect the next four years of your life.

Keep in mind that the more time and commitment you put into sorority life, the more benefits you will gain from being a member of the greek community. At Tech, we are committed to the positive development of each member of the greek community through the planning and participation of enriching programs. We put academics first and give back to the community on a continuous basis.

Greek Life is merely a stepping stone to getting involved in other aspects of campus life. ATU offers more than 100 student organizations, and students in the greek community play a large part in the leadership in many of these organizations. It is our hope that you find a home within a greek chapters as well as in other student organizations.

As you begin this new adventure of sorority recruitment, you are going to make phenomenal friendships, learn about each individual sorority and discover what they do; whether it be about their philanthropy, awards, community service projects, or their amazing sisterhood. So get ready, listen closely, and cherish these upcoming days because it’s going to be amazing!

Best Of Luck,

Caitlyn BeasleyVice President Of Recruitment

What To Expect As A New Member Study Hall Hours

Each chapter requires a certain amount of study hall hours per week during your time at ATU. Each sorority also implements programs to assist members in their academic pursuits.

Panhellenic Events

Panhellenic requires new members to attend various events throughout the year. These events address relative issues students face today that will help them with their transition into college and Greek Life.

Philanthropy Events

Each chapter enjoys serving its national and local philanthropy. Philanthropy events are hosted to promote unity within the chapters, and the Greek community, while helping a cause.

Recruitment Events

In the spring, chapters host recruitment workshops to help their members prepare for the next year’s fall formal recruitment. As a new member, you will attend these events.

Active Participation

As a new member, you will be required to attend new member meetings, sometimes in addition to chapter meetings depending on your sorority. You will also be encouraged to participate in Greek-wide events such as Greek Week and Homecoming. These events are not only fun, but will also strengthen bonds among members of the Greek system.

Scholarship

Scholarship, academics, and grades are the pillars of college life and each sorority at Arkansas Tech recognizes the importance of scholastic success. Although CPC does not require a specific GPA to participate in recruitment, it is strongly recommended that you have at least a 2.7 cumulative high school or college GPA.

Greek- letter organizations were founded on the principle of exceptional scholarship. The academic performance of each chapter is tabulated every semester to determine an all-sorority grade point average.

Page 15: CPC Recruitment Handbook (2015)

Philanthropy

Philanthropy events at Arkansas Tech prove that Greek women’s interests and concerns extend beyond social activities. Sorority members actively participate in their own chapter’s philanthropy events as well as support other chapters. Sororities sponsor a multitude of activities each year, donating time and money to their specific philanthropy or identified causes.

Alpha Sigma Tau: Habitat for Humanity

Delta Zeta: The Painted Turtle Camp

Phi Mu: Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals

Zeta Tau Alpha: Breast Cancer Research & Awareness

Social

Social events help you get to know your own sorority as well as members of other Greek organizations. Sororities participate in formals, mixers, and sisterhood events to help build relationships that will last a lifetime.

Membership Agreement At the conclusion of the recruitment process, you will be asked to complete a Membership Agreement. This agreement is binding until the next formal recruitment period; so make sure you understand the following terms.

I am willing to accept an invitation to membership from any women’s sorority that I list on this agreement.

§ I may limit my choice just one or list any women’s sorority whose preference round (last) event I attended, and from which I am willing to accept membership. I realize that by not listing the maximum number of events I attended, I may be limiting my potential to join any other NPC group during formal recruitment should I not be placed with my choice(s).

§ Once I submit this agreement to the College Panhellenic Council, I cannot change the order of my preferences or add or delete a preference.

§ If I do not receive an invitation to membership from a group that I have listed, I am eligible for continuous open bidding.

§ I have the option of not submitting an agreement at this time.

Once I submit this agreement, I am bound by the National Panhellenic Conference one calendar year rule. This rule states that if I receive an invitation to membership from a group that I have listed and then do not accept it, I am NOT eligible to be pledged until the beginning of the next primary membership recruitment period.

Page 20: CPC Recruitment Handbook (2015)

Week At a Glance Round 1 - Open House

During the first night of recruitment, you will get the opportunity to visit all four sororities with your recruitment group. Each party is 30 minutes long, and therefore, the night will move quickly. You will be greeted right away by chapter members and welcomed into the party. Feel free to ask questions of the members and tell them about yourself. Most importantly, have fun!

Round 2 - Philanthropy Round

The second day of recruitment you will have the opportunity to visit up to three sororities for 35 minutes each. During this round you will receive information about each chapter’s philanthropy and campus involvement. In addition, you will learn more about the financial and time commitment of joining a sorority. At the end of this round, you will be able to recognize the individuality and spirit of each sorority, as well as experience the special bond of sisterhood.

Round 3 - Preference Round

For Preference Round you may attend up to two 60-minute parties. This is the day to really focus on what you want to gain out of joining a sorority. An invitation to a Preference Party means the sorority is very interested in you becoming a member. After a brief ceremony, you will have the chance to talk privately with a member. During this time, she may share with you how she made her decision, what her sorority means to her, and what sisterhood means to her. This round will allow you to really connect with the chapters and determine which sorority you would be happiest joining.

Bid Day

Bid Day is the most exciting day of recruitment! On Monday evening, you will meet at Caraway Hall and will find out which sorority your Rho Sigma belongs to. After this, you will receive your bid in an sealed envelope. All at once, PNMs will open the envelopes and find out which chapter they are a new member of! Then, you will meet all of your new sorority sisters waiting for you! Your Bid Day is a once in a lifetime experience and will start one of your most exciting adventures in college.

Caraway Hall Caraway Hall represents an exciting opportunity for Greek Life at Arkansas Tech University. In the spring of 2014, it was chosen to serve as housing for all four sororities. However, it first required an intense renovation.

Caraway was built in 1934. The building possesses the old architecture found in sorority houses across the nation, making it the perfect fit for sorority housing at ATU. In 1992, Caraway was added to the National Registry of Historic Buildings. It is a source of pride for Arkansas Tech, with a supportive group of alumnae affectionately referred to as the “Caraway Hall Girls.”

Phi Mu resides on the first floor. Delta Zeta and Zeta Tau Alpha share the second floor. Alpha Sigma Tau is located on the third floor. Each sorority has a private lounge and community bathrooms for their sisters. The forth floor has a large common area that is maintained by the College Panhellenic Council.

Page 23: CPC Recruitment Handbook (2015)

What Makes THEM Unique:

§ They are currently the only NPC sorority to allow a collegian to serve on their National Council.

§ In 2004, they adopted Habitat for Humanity International as their National Service Project. They join HFHI and others from all walks of life in providing poverty housing and eliminating homelessness from the world.

§ The Alpha Sigma Tau National Foundation provides collegians and alumnae members over 30 academic scholarship opportunities to support their educational endeavors.

§ In May 2012, they formed a partnership with The Leadership Institute-Women with Purpose to provide a Service Immersion experience for collegian members known as Project Impact. The project provides opportunity for leadership development, service and self discovery.

Alpha Sigma Tau Active, Self-Reliant, Trustworthy

Alpha Sigma Tau’s purpose is to develop the character of each member through a study of ethics so that she will show in all her relationships sincerity, honesty, love and understanding; to help each member enjoy the cultural advantages in life so that she will know how to select those things which are most worthwhile; and to develop in each member the social graces to the extent that she will be able to take her place in life with true dignity and poise.

What Makes Them Unique:

§ The Delta Zeta Foundation, which is a non-profit organization that makes possible gifts and support for scholarships, leadership, philanthropy, and education, continues to enrich their members and enable them to enrich the lives of those in need.

§ Service to others enriches the world. The Delta Zeta Creed says, “To those whom my life may touch in slight measure, may I give graciously of what is mine.” Their national philanthropies, supported by both collegiate and alumnae chapters, are speech and hearing and The Painted Turtle camp.

§ They have 160 active chapters.

§ Their six founders bonded quickly as they faced the challenges of starting a sorority on a male-dominated campus. In 1902, women had just been given full status as students at Miami University, when they were founded.

§ They have 122 active chapters and 11 colonies.

§ Phi Mu’s national philanthropy is Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

In total, Phi Mu has contributed over eight million dollars and countless hours, improving the quality of life for children throughout the country. The Epsilon Lambda chapter at Tech hosts an event on Phi Mu National Philanthropy Day to support this national goal and promote service among members.

§ Lions have always been a part of Phi Mu’s history and are also shown on their Coat of Arms. Their mascot, which they affectionately call “Sir Fidel,” is a name adapted from the open motto, Les Soeurs Fideles, meaning “The Faithful Sisters.”

Phi Mu the Faithful Sisters
