  • The QUEST for THETA XI Copyright 2002 by THETA XI FRATERNITY All Rights Reserved
    The QUEST for THETA XI Copyright 2002 BY THETA XI FRATERNITY All Rights Reserved Twenty-Third Edition of The Manual of Theta Xi Edited by James E. Vredenburgh, Jr., Jonathon T. Luning, Jeffrey W. Arnold and Cory M. Criter Theta Xi Fraternity P.O. Box 411134 St. Louis, MO 63141 800-783-6294 Fax: 314-993-8760 E-Mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The Quest, as this book is commonly known, provides an introduction to the nature and traditions of the Theta Xi Fraternity. It also serves to acquaint new members with the individual responsibilities of fraternity membership. And it outlines the purposes, programs, history, goals and organizational structure of Theta Xi. It is not necessary, however, for an associate member to memorize everything this manual covers during the brief period of formal associate membership. The Quest is designed to help you get as much as possible from your total Fraternity experience; for just as membership in Theta Xi is for a lifetime, so is this manual, which shall serve as a reference for you as an undergraduate member and as an alumni member who may wish to refresh, renew or enhance his knowledge and understanding of the Fraternity and its principles. The members of Theta Xi have a fuller appreciation of the value of living up to the Fraternity’s ideals because they have lived and practiced its standards, and the further you study this book, the fuller and more vivid the experience becomes. As you read The Quest and interact with the chapter of your affiliation, you will find that you get out of Theta Xi as much, if not more, than what you put into it.

  • The History of Greek Life at Florida Tech
    The History of Greek Life at Florida Tech The history of the community dates back to the early days of the university. The 60’s proved to be a building and development phase for the community. The community began in 1965 with the founding of a local organization Alpha Kappa Pi. Shortly after, Alpha Lambda Chi, Delta Delta Tau and Epsilon Delta emerged as local fraternities. From the beginning of the local fraternities, all began the process of affiliating with (inter)national organizations; Alpha Kappa Pi was the first local to become affiliated in 1968, with Pi Kappa Alpha International Fraternity. Alpha Epsilon Pi, an international Jewish fraternity, became the second national group, also in 1968. To finish the 60’s the Chi Phi National Fraternity picked up the local Alpha Lambda Chi organization. Greek Week, a competition between the chapters, emerged in this time as well. The 70’s were a busy time in the community. Epsilon Kappa Delta, a local group, quickly began the process of affiliating with Lambda Chi Alpha International Fraternity and became a colony in 1970. The local Delta Delta Tau organization became affiliated with Theta Xi National Fraternity just two year later. Tau Kappa Epsilon International Fraternity emerged at Florida Tech in 1975, being the second group without local roots to begin on campus. In the late 70’s the first recorded sorority emerged as a local group with the name Sigma Omicron Phi. The 80’s proved to be a slow period in community development. Delta Sigma Phi was the only international male fraternity to form, and Sigma Omicron Phi, the sole local sorority, became affiliated with Gamma Phi Beta National Sorority after a failed attempt at affiliation with Zeta Tau Alpha International Fraternity.
