Resources for Virtual Chapter Management

As members of the fraternity and sorority community, we are accustomed to change and certainly understand the need to evolve to meet the ever-changing demands of our society.

Even with that understanding, we recognize the era we are in is unprecedented and challenging for all of us. We hope the resources below will help you maintain a strong sense of belonging, connection, and passion as you navigate a virtual fraternity and sorority experience.

We would like to thank our Fraternity and Sorority colleagues at Florida State University for developing this outline.

Congratulations

Phi Kappa Psi!

Congratulations to Phi Kappa Psi for raising $16,482 for their Safe Driving Week!

Phi Psi brother Hunter Watson lost his life as a passenger in a distracted accident as he was to begin his junior year in college. His foundation (Hunter's Fund) works to reduce deaths and injuries from distracted driving accidents by sponsoring programs that encourage young people to drive distraction-free.

Requirements for Potential New Members & Interests

Starting Fall 2020 all potential new members and interests of a fraternity or sorority must attend all three workshops below before they begin the recruitment/intake process. All workshops are coordinated through the Barnes Center at The Arch Health Promotion.

Alcohol Safety 101

Participants will learn about general information on alcohol use, a variety of strategies for safer alcohol use and how to recognize and respond to alcohol poisoning. Workshop provided by Be Wise Peer Educators.

STOP Bias

This workshop will discuss what bias is and provide real-life, relatable examples (recognize), as well as bystander intervention skills (stop). We will also discuss how to report and what the process looks like after you've done so (report). Workshop provided by the STOP Bias Program.

Hazing Prevention

In this presentation you will learn about what hazing is using an affirmative consent framework and how it can impact your social connections and mental health. Review how to recognize hazing and act as a prosocial bystander to intervene safely and help your peers that are experiencing hazing. This is an interactive session where you will practice scenarios and hear from other peers to help better equip you in responding if you see hazing among your friends and peers.
