Greek Week is an annual event sponsored by the Office of Greek Life through the Interfraternity and Panhellenic Councils that will take place March 25-30, 2012. We want this year to exceed previous years, and in order for that to happen we need all of you to be as positive about Greek Week as we are! It is our #1 priority to make you feel comfortable approaching any of us if you have questions, comments, concerns or suggestions. We hope that you will enjoy the opportunity to experience friendly competition in what should be not only a philanthropic event, but a week of enjoyment for the entire Duquesne Community! This rulebook has been designed to be your guide through Greek Week. In this rulebook, you will find a schedule of events, event descriptions, and an outline of the point structure for the overall competitions. Additional information will be made available to you if any changes are made. Important information will be distributed and important decisions will be made at the Greek Week Committee Meetings, so it is crucial that you have your Greek Week committee member attend these meetings or points will be deducted. Please feel free to contact any of the Greek Week Chairpersons with any questions or concerns that you might have. Best of luck in Greek Week 2012! Fraternally, Sean Wood & Justin Bernard Greek Week Committee Chairmen Molly McCann & Courtney Wertz Greek Week Committee Chairwomen Rebecca Jamrozik-Mickler Director of Greek Life 2 The Duquesne University Mission Statement “Duquesne University of the Holy Ghost is a Catholic university, founded by members of the Congregation of the Holy Ghost, the Spiritans, and sustained thr-ough a partnership of laity and religious.

An intoxicated person is considered any person who has any amount of a drug, including alcohol, introduced into their body since they woke up that morning. The Office of Greek Life in conjunction with the Greek Week Committee defines a representative of your organization as one who is participating in a Greek Week Event, one who is competing in a Greek Week competition, or one who is attending a Greek Week event in any capacity (i.e. as a committee member, spectator, etc.) My organization understands why intoxicated members of the Duquesne University community can be harmful, embarrassing, and against the Mission Statement of the University. No one from my organization will show up to any event as a participant, competitor, and spectator or otherwise, while as intoxicated as defined above. My organization also understands that it will be up to the Office of Greek Life and the Greek Week Chairs, to determine the intoxication of an organization's representative. My organization understands the repercussions for violations of this policy are up to the discretion of the Office of Greek Life and the Greek Week Chairs, keeping in mind that disqualification from an event or from the Overall Competition and referral for student code of conduct violations to the Office of Judicial Affairs is possible. The Office of Greek Life and Greek Week Committee out of concern for my organization, in the best interest of the Duquesne University community's well-being, and in an effort to make the Greek Week competition enjoyable for all participants requires your compliance with this policy. The President, Vice-President, and Chapter Greek Week Representative from each organization are required to sign below. _________________________ ________________ __________ President Organization Date _________________________ ________________ __________ Vice President Organization Date _________________________ ________________ __________ Chapter Committee Rep.

Failure to comply will result in deduction of points or disqualification per the discretion of the Greek Week Chairs, Student Advisor or Director of Greek Life. My organization also understands that not only are we Greek Members of the Duquesne University Community, but first and foremost students. Let it be known that under no circumstances may a chapter implement a rule that requires 100% attendance every night. Failure to comply with this rule with result in the organizations inability to compete and/or participate in Greek Week 2010 per the discretion of the Greek Week Chairs, Student Advisor or Director of Greek Life. The Office of Greek Life and Greek Week Committee, in the best interest of each Student’s academic well-being, and in an effort to make the Greek Week competition enjoyable for all participants requires your compliance with this policy.

We are excited to announce that the theme for Greek Week 2012 is “The few, The Proud, The Greeks.” This year’s theme encourages Greeks to connect with our faculty, staff, parents, alumni and local/international philanthropies. We hope to show the Duquesne community that Greek Life at Duquesne is both proactive and philanthropic. The t-shirts will capture the theme of Greek Week 2012. The current cost of each shirt is “?” This covers the cost of printing the shirts, plus a small contribution to the philanthropy. The scoring system for buying the t-shirts is in the 2012 Greek Week Rulebook. All order forms must be turned in by March 5TH at 2:00 PM to the Office of Greek Life. Any order forms turned in after this date and time will still be taken, but NO POINTS WILL BE AWARDED FOR GREEK WEEK.

    1 Edited by the National Staff - Special thanks to: Daniel Miller ΑΦΖ '14 Nicolas R. Hewgley ΔΣΦ '15 The Exoteric Manual, 18th Edition, 2015 The Fraternity of Alpha Chi Rho 2 RB Stewart National Headquarters 109 Oxford Way Neptune, NJ 07753 [email protected] (E-Mail) (732) 869-1895 (Phone) www.alphachirho.org (Website) www.facebook.com/AlphaChiRhoHQ (Facebook) 3 "The experience of Greek letter societies has developed certain tendencies against which we need to caution ourselves and our younger brethren." The tendencies we should avoid include vanity, egotism, contempt for the poor, a merely social spirit, idleness, and inactivity. Revered Founder Rev. Paul Ziegler 4 INTRODUCTION The first Exoteric Manual was printed in 1895 under the authorship of Revered Founder Paul Ziegler. Designed to present the ideas of the Fraternity, the six paged, 3.5" x 4.5" book contained an oath for postulants encouraging them to maintain the high ideals of Alpha Chi Rho. Since 1895 the Exoteric Manual has been revised many times to reflect the growth and changes in the Fraternity. Though the manual has encountered changes, its purpose as an educational tool and Brotherhood life-guide has not. This Exoteric contains the history of Alpha Chi Rho, its principles, ideals and mission. As the men of Alpha Chi Rho, we must always keep an eye open to change and development. Since the inception, the Fraternity has gone through many changes which have enabled the Fraternity to survive. Evolution has made this Fraternity stronger and better able to fulfill the changing needs of the brotherhood. The new Exoteric Manual is a book for life and is to be used not only through the Postulant period, but also through one’s college career and beyond.

  • Jewish Fraternal Organizations of the Early 20Th Century Hal Bookbinder ([email protected])
    Jewish Fraternal Organizations of the early 20th Century Hal Bookbinder ([email protected]) Our ancestors created a wide variety of organizations to provide mutual support, from religious to social, educational, insurance and burial services. “Landsmanshaften” brought together individuals who came from the same town in Europe. Sometimes established as lodges of a fraternal organization, like the Independent Order, Sons of Jacob. These organizations paralleled existing American ones incorporating the pomp and secrecy of Masonry, Pythians and Odd Fellows. These organizations provided a safety net through life and health insurance and offered social opportunities to lead and to be recognized. Hundreds of thousands of our immigrant ancestors participated during the heyday of these organizations in the first half of the 20th century. Most were male-focused. Women participated through auxiliaries and occasionally fully independent orders. Understanding these organizations provides important insights into the lives of our immigrant ancestors. Over a score of major Jewish Fraternal Organizations were formed between 1840 and 1920, including American Star Order Independent Order Western Star Improved Order of B’nai B’rith (now, B'nai Independent Order, B’nai B’rith B'rith International) Independent Workmen’s Circle of America Independent Order Ahavas Israel Jewish National Workers’ Alliance of America Independent Order B’rith Abraham Kesher Shel Barzel Independent Order B’rith Sholom Order of B’rith Abraham Independent Order Free Sons of Israel Order of the Sons of Zion (now, “B’nai Zion”) Independent Order of American Israelites Order of the United Hebrew Brothers Independent Order of Free Sons of Judah Progressive Order of the West Independent Order of Sons of Abraham United Order of the True Sisters, Inc.

  • Fraternities Inter-Fraternity Council
    FRATERNITIES INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL Charles S. Simmons THE Inter-fraternity Council was organized in President 1926 with the expressed purposes of promoting G. Luther Heppe the interests of the University and of the sev- Vice-President eral fraternities represented on its campus; of insuring amiable cooperation between the Thomas Craig various fraternities; and of maintaining efficient Secretary and Treasurer relations with the college authorities. Arthur G. Craig Oscar Tucker The principal activities of the Council are the regulation of the "Rushing Season" held each fall Lewis D. Learned, Jr. for the pledging of Freshmen; and the sponsor- ing of Inter-fraternity Basketball, Swimming, Baseball, Relays, and, in conjunction with the Footlights Club, the annual Inter-fraternity Plays Contest. 194 KAPPA ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA I HE Kappa Alpha (Southern) Fraternity was founded at Washington and Lee University, in Virginia, December 21, 1865. It was established with the idea of creating an organization to keep alive the spirit of Southern chivalry and hospitality of pre-Civil War days. The fraternity was inspired and sanctioned by Robert E. Lee, then President of the University. Kappa Alpha is semi-military in char- acter, and has confined itself to the South, in location, but not in personnel. There is no connection whatever between Northern and Southern Kappa Alphas, except in name. April 29, 1904, marked the appearance of the first fraternity at the University of Delaware, Beta Epsilon Chapter of the Kappa Alpha Order, situated in the build- ing which is now known as Purnell Hall. In 1909, however, due to its rapid growth, the fraternity was forced to move to a large home on "the Hill," which it occupies at the present time.

The epsilon Sigma Tau Phi chapter at Delaware was one of the early fraternities on the campus. Pi Through the years Alpha Epsilon Pi has had an extremely wide assortment of members, from athletes to scholars and from agriculture members to South Ameri- can revolutionists. No formal religious or ethical code is found in the requirements for brotherhood; and thanks to this, the wide diversification of individuals neces- sary to any truly fraternal organization has always been present at Rho Deuteron chapter, even though the number of brothers is comparatively small. This diversi- fication in turn breeds an atmosphere of tolerance to new conceptual frontiers, thus filling an area vitally needed but too often ignored in a person's education. On campus AEPi has always acted in the role of an "avant garde." AEPis have served as officers in the SGA, the IFC, the Review, and most other campus organizations.
