Most sororities/fraternities sponsor philanthropic events to raise money for a number of philanthropies.

For the 2020-2021 academic year, chapters will be assessed through a modified Year End Evaluation Report process. Chapter: Kappa Alpha Psi Assistant Director: Olivia Miller Rating Scale For the 2020-2021 academic year, chapters will not be assessed based on Accredited with Excellence, Accredited, Unaccredited or Unacceptable. Instead, each area will be assessed by a panel of students, faculty, staff and advisors.

This evaluation is not only based on performance, but also on effort made to prioritize these essential areas during a pandemic in lieu of more traditional fraternity and sorority efforts and operations.

  • 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.
