North American Interfraternity Conference (IFC) An IFC exists where there are two or more NIC member (or non-member) fraternities on a campus.

The NIC provides direct support, resources and services to IFC officers, representatives, advisors and alumni to further the health and success of local fraternity communities. National Panhellenic Conference National Panhellenic Conference is the world’s largest umbrella organization specifically charged with advancing the sorority experience. Through its advocacy, NPC seeks to enlist nearly 5 million sorority women in its efforts to showcase the transformational power of the sorority experience. Through its programs and initiatives, NPC encourages the sharing of information, resources and best practices to ensure the sorority experience continues to meet the needs of today’s collegiate women. Campus Recognition Each year organizations need to turn in the Active Recognition Form to be recognized as an ​ ​ official organization on campus. The form updates the officers in the Student Activities Office database, and ensures the organizations receive any pertinent emails and communications. In addition any organization with a CCSI account will also need to turn in the CCSI Signature ​ Sheet each year in order to access their account. ​ 7 FS Central Officers of both NPC and IFC will, upon election as an officer, create accounts in FS Central. ​ ​ The FSL Advisor will add the officers into the respective organizations within one week of their election to the councils. Council members will be responsible for uploading the following information to FS Central on an ongoing basis.

An Abstract of Development and Consolidation of the University of Toledo Greek Life Governing Councils: 1915-2006 by Alexandra Marie White Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Education Degree in Higher Education The University of Toledo May 2015 Since the 18th century fraternities and sororities have been an integral part of extracurricular life on college campuses. Even though there are many different fraternities and sororities, each aims to provide friendship, leadership, and professional development to its members (King, 2004).The rich history of Greek organizations has played an important role in the development of student life at The University of Toledo, where fraternities have been present since October of 1915, when the Cresset society was formed (History of the Cresset Fraternity, n.d.). However, throughout the years the University of Toledo Greek community has adapted and consolidated in order to ensure survival while remaining a vital component on campus.

  • FRATERNITY ROW, the STUDENT GHETTO, and the FACULTY ENCLAVE Characteristic Residential Districts in the American College Town
    10.1177/0096144205281664 JOURNAL OF URBAN HISTORY / January 2006 ARTICLE Gumprecht / RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS IN COLLEGE TOWNS FRATERNITY ROW, THE STUDENT GHETTO, AND THE FACULTY ENCLAVE Characteristic Residential Districts in the American College Town BLAKE GUMPRECHT University of New Hampshire The unusual demographic characteristics of college towns, and the social differences that exist within stu- dent populations, have led to the emergence in college communities of several distinctive types of residential districts. Using Ithaca, New York,as an example, this study examines the origins and evolution of three such districts—the Greek-housing district sometimes called “fraternity row,” the student rental area often known as the student ghetto, and the faculty enclave. Together such districts help to make the American college town a unique type of urban place. Keywords: college towns; neighborhoods; housing; residential segregation The hundreds of college towns in the United States are, in essence, an aca- demic archipelago.1 Similar to one another, they often differ in several impor- tant ways from other cities and the regions in which they are located. The most fundamental difference is demographic and is a reflection of the fact that many college towns are single-industry communities whose main business is educa- tion. The annual migration of new students to campuses means college town populations are forever young. The need for faculty and administrators, and the presence of graduate students, mean that college town populations are more highly educated than the general populace.2 The lopsided demographics of college communities help explain their dis- tinctive personalities. College town commercial areas reflect the ever-chang- ing tastes of youth and the nonmainstream orientation of many professors.

The education of your future officers, committee chairmen, committee members and general members will define your chapter over the next three to four years. You, the chosen New Member Educator, have a duty to your chapter and the Order to ensure the thorough and proper education of the men your chapter has invited to join. It is your responsibility to follow the rules and guidelines defined by the Kappa Alpha Laws, chapter bylaws and of your host university or college. This guide should aid you in your education of these new members and should provide you a roadmap for planning the education period. It was the duty of every member of your chapter to investigate potential new members before extending them a bid of membership. As an Order, we look for individuals who previously possess the same qualities and ideals as ourselves. It is through recruitment that you examine a man’s qualities to make a determination on whether he can become a valuable member to your chapter and to Kappa Alpha Order.
