Greek life offers a lot of benefits - to see the proof all you
have to do is look at the alumni who valued their experiences
so much, they're still giving back today. Being in a
Fraternity means you have a network of people immediately
around you who care about your success and development
because, like family, their name is tied to your own. That
network stays with you even after college, and as you enter
your career, you're likely to meet many brothers and continue
to share the bond. It also means you're instantly offered an
avenue through with to get to know your campus and fellow
students through community service, campus activities like
Homecoming and Sooner Scandals, and social events. Perhaps
most of all, going Greek helps and forces you to learn the
essential skills time management skill known as Work/Life
Balance. It is important to be able to distinguish when to
have a good time and when to get work done, and learning that
in college will save learning that in professional life.
One of the most common arguments against fraternities is
that you're "buying your friends." Being in a fraternity
isn't free, but what you're buying is a set of experiences.
The friends are yours to make through common experiences.
Make no mistake, it can be hard work juggling social and
academic commitments. But in Delta Chi, we're not trying to
recruit 100 men - our commitment is to develop each member
into a successful man - both in college and afterward.
Delta Chi's core values are: Friendship, Character,
Justice, and Education:
Rush is an appropriate name for the fraternal recruitment
process. You're given only one week to meet and choose who
your fraternity brothers will be for the rest of your life.
We encourage you to come get a hard start on the process,
and bring any concerns you have for us to answer.
The Chapter's generous Alumni have provided us with an
outstanding
Scholarship/Leadership
Fund. This fund incorporates several types of
scholarships and leadership training for our members.
We are active in community service and athletics, and have
former members who are now graduates and current members who are national
merit scholars, presidents of other organizations on campus,
military servicemen, RUF/NEKS, elected city council members,
IFC staff, and members who been on the football, wrestling
and baseball teams. If you have what it takes to join Delta
Chi, sign up on the
Rush Form or attend a
Delta Chi rush event in your area. We look forward to
meeting you.
Sincerely,
David Gleason, President
