WELCOME TO BEAVER NATION!

WELCOME TO BEAVER NATION! Joining a fraternity or sorority can be one of the best ways to find your home away from home at Oregon State and make a large campus feel much smaller. There are 46 chapters on campus that are a member of one of five communities: the Interfraternity Council (IFC), the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), the Panhellenic Council (PHC), and the Unified Greek Council (UGC), orthe Collective Greek Council (CGC). We believe there is a place for everyone in our diverse community of over 3,100 students. Fraternities and sororities have a rich history at OSU and have been on campus for over 135 years. The first national organization, Alpha Tau Omega, was established on campus in 1882. Our community shares several core principles: Friendship, Scholarship, Leadership, Inclusivity, Philanthropy and Service. The community shared vision statement is: United by a common bond, we are a diverse community dedicated to scholarship, leadership and service. Our members live these values each day and strive toward this vision in the events and programs they plan and in the membership experiences our chapters offer. Membership in a fraternity or sorority not only allows you to get more involved at OSU, but also within the local Corvallis community. Studies show that students who are engaged with student organizations, like fraternities and sororities, are more successful academically and are more likely to graduate. College is a time to build memories and gain friends that will last a lifetime. We know that college is full of choices, and we are glad you ve made the choice to get to know our chapters. We urge you to get to know our organizations for yourself and make the best decision for you about which group to join. Please take time to browse through this publication and acquaint yourself with all that fraternity and sorority life has to offer. If you re still not sure if going Greek is right for you, we encourage you to learn more about these organizations by checking out the fall recruitment/membership intake processes. Once again, welcome to Oregon State University. We offer you our best wishes for every success during your time here. And get used to saying it Go Beavs! 2 3

Sororities & Fraternities at OSU share six core community values: Scholarship: Fraternities and sororities at Oregon State University strive for academic excellence. Each chapter has specific grade requirements for students to achieve and maintain active membership and provides their members with resources to promote academic success. Fraternity and sorority membership offers many options to help new members transition academically from high school to college, including educational programs and workshops, study hours, tutoring programs, and more. As a result, the All-Greek GPA is consistently at or above the All-Undergraduate average. Leadership: Developing leadership skills in all members is a fundamental goal of every organization. Fraternities and sororities offer a variety of leadership positions within their chapters and opportunities also exist in the Fraternity/Sorority Community at large. Members are also leaders on campus, currently holding leadership positions in over 260 student organizations at OSU. Inclusivity: United by a common bond, the OSU Greek community is a diverse community that strives for inclusivity of all people regardless of race, culture, identity, gender, or sexual orientation. We hope to promote a welcoming environment for all students on campus where all members and guests feel supported and accepted. Philanthropy: Fraternities and sororities sponsor a variety of philanthropic fundraisers that raise over $200,000 annually to support local and national nonprofit organizations. These fundraisers include athletic tournaments, haunted houses, lip sync competitions, and more. Community Service: In conjunction with philanthropy, each fraternity and sorority participates in numerous community service events each year to engage with the Corvallis and surrounding communities. Last year, OSU s Fraternity and Sorority Community logged more than 52,000 hours of community service. Commitment to civic engagement encourages growth as servant leaders and allows members to help others in the world around us. Friendship: With a large student body at OSU, it is easy for new students to be overwhelmed with life on campus. Fraternity and sorority membership eases the transition and enriches the college experience by encouraging the development of sincere relationships within a tight-knit community of over 3,100 students. The lifelong bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood made in fraternities and sororities are unmatched by any other student organization. 4 5

Student Leader Spotlight on RADHIKA SHAH Major: Environmental Science Minor: Oceanography, Environmental Policy OSU Fraternity Alumnus Spotlight on KEN AUSTIN 54 ΔTΔ Ken Austin, the namesake of Austin Hall, is an engineer and entrepreneur that has truly left a mark on the history of Oregon State. Austin graduated in 1954 and with his late wife, Joan Austin, founded A-dec in his hometown of Newberg, Oregon. A-dec, or Austin Dental Equipment Company, went on to become the largest manufacturer of dental equipment in the country. He holds 38 patents in the dental equipment industry. In 1952, Austin became the first Benny Beaver mascot in school history. Austin, and one of his fraternity brothers from Delta Tau Delta, came up with the idea and began this special tradition for OSU. After getting the approval of what was then Oregon State College, Austin made the costume himself and was ready to perform in front of the school for the football season. For his act, he drew inspiration from rodeo clowns he grew up watching in the St. Paul rodeo. Austin carried a revolver around at the games and shot blanks, one time even burning holes into the penalty flag of the referee. Austin, as Benny, would even climb up and sit on top of the goalposts when the opposing team would get close to scoring. More recently, Austin has devoted himself to giving back to his community. He and his wife founded Springbrook Northwest, a drug and alcohol treatment center. He also worked with Rotary International to donate dental units for missionary projects. Austin was not yet satisfied with his philanthropic endeavors, and due to his love of OSU, donated $10 million for the construction of a new building for the business program. This building, which opened in the Fall of 2014, was dedicated in his honor.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1. What will I get from a fraternity or sorority that I would not get out of any other college organization? Coming to college is one of the major life changes that you will go through. Joining a fraternity or sorority will help make the transition easier. Developing lifelong friendships with other chapter members helps make the campus seem smaller. For many members, these chapters become a home away from home. In addition to the brotherhood/ sisterhood, every chapter is dedicated to enhancing leadership, scholarship, and philanthropy/community service. 2. How do I find the right organization for me? The best way to find your fit is to ask current members of the organization. Recruitment events are a great way to meet people and ask questions. At the end of the day, it matters most that you find a group that you connect with and that shares similar values with you. 3. If I go through membership intake or recruitment, am I guaranteed an invitation to join a fraternity or sorority? Just as you are looking for a perfect fit, these organizations are also looking for great individuals. Membership criteria can change from organization to organization, but all groups will have a minimum GPA requirement; some will be focusing on previous or other campus involvement, others more on community service, leadership experience, etc. The most important thing is to be your genuine self throughout the recruitment/membership intake process and the right organization for you will embrace you for who you are. 4. If I am an international student, can I join a fraternity/ sorority? Yes, anyone who is enrolled at OSU is allowed to pursue membership through recruitment or membership intake. We welcome and encourage international students to take part in Fraternity and Sorority Life. 5. What opportunities for continued involvement are there after I graduate? Fraternity and sorority life is a lifelong commitment with limitless opportunities. Following graduation, many organizations encourage their graduating members to join their local alumni association, as well as regional, district, or national positions and volunteer to support undergraduate members. 6. Do I have to go to all recruitment and membership intake events? What if I can t make it to a recruitment or membership intake event? The best way to find out if an organization is for you, it to attend as many of their events as possible. This will help you see if an organization is a good fit for you. However, it is up to you to attend or choose not attend recruitment events. You should never skip class to attend recruitment events. Your education always comes first. It is a good idea let the recruitment chair know that you would like to attend an event, but that you have time conflicts with the event time. Keep in mind, some organizations require you to meet certain criteria, for example attending an informational program, community service event, etc. before you will be eligible for membership. 7. How much does it cost to join a fraternity or sorority? It is important for potential members and parents to be as informed as possible regarding the costs associated with obtaining a college education. Understanding the financial obligations associated with fraternity and sorority membership is just as important. Each individual joining a fraternity or sorority should be aware of the dues, fees and other expenses that are involved and should consider these when making financial plans to attend college. During the recruitment or membership intake process, a potential member should ask members about the financial obligations and payment options. Each organization sets its own fees and payment schedules. The average cost for the first term of joining an organization is usually higher due to one-time expenses and fees. Specific membership fees and costs are shared during council-sponsored recruitment processes. For housed chapters, dues and live-in fees are usually less than the cost to live on-campus in a residence hall. On each council s page you can see a breakdown of financial costs. 26 27
