RELATIONSHIP STATEMENT OF EXPECTATIONS AND SERVICES
In order for all members of the campus and village communities to serve as positive entities in the nature of fraternity and sorority activities, a cooperative relationship between the College and recognized Greek Organizations must exist. Essential to this relationship is the understanding of the expectations that each group has of the other, and of the services provided by the college to these organizations. It also includes understanding the rules for participating in the Inter-Greek Council system and the sanctions for violations of policies.
It is important that this relationship focus on the education and development
of the fraternities and sororities, and work to help members reach their
potential and act as positive and productive members of the academic community.
Fraternities and sororities are not independent organizations but are part of the College. Therefore, the College seeks to nurture and assist student groups in the accomplishment of those goals that support the College's mission.
Greek Organizations were founded to advance the ideals of scholarship, leadership, and service to to others. They should actively seek to promote these ideals and minimize those activities that are in conflict with these standards.
The right of fraternities and sororities to exist as part of the College
brings with it a high level of responsibility. To achieve mutual success
for the College and its Greek organizations, there must exist a trust and
shared responsibility. This begins with mutual support for each others'
goals, and sharing resources when possible and appropriate. |
