The Interfraternity Council is chiefly responsible for ensuring the performance of its chapters with regard to the pillars of scholarship, leadership, service, and community. The IFC is also charged with organizing specific events including fall and spring recruitment weeks, new member orientation, and other social and educational programs. The IFC aims to lead by example by offering additional leadership opportunities and scholarships, hosting its own service events and philanthropies, and by working toward bettering the Greek, UF, and Gainesville Communities. LEARN MORE AT UFIFC.ORG WHAT HAPPENS ONCE I JOIN A FRATERNITY? After joining a fraternity you will enter into an educational new member program for up to 8 weeks. Programming differs from each chapter, as each fraternity has their own events and rituals. During this time, you will be educated in the Greek ideals of the chapter and community, while building a strong bond with the members of your new fraternity. Make sure to ask about the programs you will go through as a new member. WHAT TYPE OF LIVING ACCOMMODATIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO ME IF I JOIN AN IFC FRATERNITY? IFC fraternity chapters at UF have a wide variety of housing options. Some chapters have official chapter houses on- and off-campus in a variety of locations within the university context area. Some fraternity brothers may also choose to live together in personal off-campus houses.

WAGNER A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF INTERIOR DESIGN UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2006 Copyright 2006 by Paula M. Wagner To Ryan and my soon-to-be-born daughter. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my committee members for assisting and guiding me with this process of writing a thesis. Their insights provided support and challenged me to become a better investigator and writer throughout the process. The University of Florida Department of Housing and Residence Education was a huge part of the success of this thesis. They provided information through site visits, meetings, and emails, greatly helping my research and giving an overall feeling of support. The University of Florida Physical Plant Division, more specifically the Architecture/Engineering Department, was instrumental with supplying access to archival construction documents and specifications for the residence hall. Finally, I need to thank my husband for his support and encouragement throughout the time I have known him, especially in the past few years. In addition, I appreciate the support that our families have provided in this experience. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ................................................................................................. iv TABLE.............................................................................................................................
