Introduction The System-Wide Assessment Report is an annual examination of the overall fraternity and sorority community at Lehigh University. This report spans a period that covers the 2015-2016 academic year. II. Charge to the System-Wide Assessment Committee The necessity for the existence of the System-Wide Assessment Committee (SWAC) emerged from the Strengthening Greek Life Task Force's proclamation: "There will be an annual assessment of the overall Greek system to measure progress towards realizing the vision for Greek life as well as to identify emerging needs and opportunities to strengthen Greek life. A System-Wide Assessment Committee comprised of students, alumni, and University staff, charged by the Vice Provost for Student Affairs, will be responsible for conducting this assessment. The System-Wide Assessment Committee is also responsible for making recommendations to the Vice Provost regarding the viability of expansion of the Greek system. The committee utilizes a full range of resources including Accreditation reports, annual reports of the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs (OFSA), a review of national trends and innovations in Greek life, insights and perspectives of members of the Lehigh community, as well as input from the executive leadership of affiliated chapters."

Copyright © 2020 0 Dear New Member, Congratulations! You are about to embark on a lifelong journey of membership into the oldest and one of the most venerated College fraternities in America. This journey will be filled with numerous lifelong friendships, experiences, and opportunities. Established at the College of New Jersey (later Princeton University) on December 24, 1824, our Fraternity has witnessed our members distinguish themselves in virtually every walk of life. Chi Phi was founded on friendship and for almost two centuries has steadfastly stood for Truth, Honor and Personal Integrity. As members of Chi Phi, we profess and subscribe to a higher form of friendship that we refer to as Brotherhood. Chi Phis are gentlemen who respect and defend the rights of others. We profess a devotion to high moral conduct and responsible citizenship. We are today’s campus leaders and tomorrow’s world leaders. As members of the Fraternity we have a sacred obligation to one another. Membership requires that we demonstrate a spirit of sincerity and respect toward each member. We can be diverse yet be of one heart. We can agree to disagree, but at the end of the day we can still embrace in the spirit of Brotherhood. As in most relationships, the benefit you derive from Chi Phi will be directly proportional to the effort you expend as a member.

He sat down for an interview with Senior Director of Development, Elizabeth Knott. Why did you decide to join Chi Phi? Chi Phi was a start up at University of South Florida. The Delta Zeta Chapter was founded in April 1984 but was reorganized into a Colony again in 1988. I saw a great opportunity to be on the ground floor with a great bunch of guys who I liked and respected. I am still friends with all of them to this day. My roommate Chip Woodward had joined the semester before and I saw through him that it was so much more than the stereotypes that I had thought a “frat” was.
