Sororities and Fraternities

The initiation rituals of each sorority varies from organization to organization...these rituals are usually secret to everyone but the members of that organization.

The sororities and fraternities at UCLA change a lot! Many are gone each year and reestablish later. Many fraternities loose their recognition overnight due to a bad situation and their National pulls their charter. At this time the fraternities present are Sigma Nu, SAE, Sigma Chi ZBT, Pi Kappa Alpha, Delta Tau Delta, Beta Theta Pi, and Phi Psi. Tomorrow it may be a different situation.

The sororities are more stable and have defined tiers. At this time the sororities are:

Pi Beta Phi, Kappa Alpha Theta, Alpha Phi, Delta Gamma, Kappa Delta, Kappa kappa Gamma, Alpha Delta Pi, Chi Omega, and Delta Delta Delta. AEPhi, AXO, and Gamma Phi Beta have come and gone and come again.

There are several categories under fraternity.

Social, service, professional and honorary fraternity.

The most recognized form is the social fraternity.

The effects actually depend on what kind of fraternity you are in. Protection, back-up, friends.

Rituals are created by a set of people who have influence over others to discipline life and include predictability.

There are many different types of fraternities and sororities across the United States from social to academic to honorary. The following is a list of the social fraternities and sororities across the country. The National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) is the governing body of 26 National Sororities. The North American Interfraternity Conference (IFC) is the governing body of more than 70 National fraternities. The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) is the governing body for the "divine nine", or the 9 historically African American fraternities and sororities. The National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO) is an umbrella council for 21 historically Latino/Latina fraternities and sororities. The National MultiCultural Greek Council (NMGC) is an umbrella council for 11 nationally multicultural fraternities and sororities. There are also numerous local organizations (they only exist on 1 campus) throughout the United States.

The origin of the college fraternity dates back to December 5, 1776 with the creation of Phi Beta Kappa. Originally a secret society, it later changed in the 1830's to become an honorary fraternity. In the early 1820's, several other fraternities were created, all utilized Greek letters, displayed a badge, had a ritual and were secret societies. By the turn of the century, 40 fraternities were in existence through out the North America. Since 1900 the development of fraternities has been so rapid that the 20th century organizations outnumber those established previously. World War's I & II were a great strain on the fraternity system. Most college aged men were fighting overseas and many chapters closed. At the end of WW II, and largely because of the GI Bill, the "Golden Age" of Fraternities started as a result of the large influx of men into college. Universities with 40 fraternities, each with 50-150 men were not uncommon. The sixties and seventies were a tough period for fraternities as the youth of those eras questioned the "establishment" — fraternities were seen as part of this "establishment." Today, college fraternities have returned to their roots. They exist to provide a "home away from home", encourage high scholastic achievement, foster community spirit, and teach much needed leadership skills.

As a sister I can tell you that is only revealed to fully pledged sisters of Delta Delta Delta.

It is a closed ritual known only to the brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha. It is the most complex and well thought out ritual planned by any college fraternity. Many people try to get ahold of it and some think they have seen it online. I have the entire ritual book in my possession right now, but what it contains is reserved for me and the other brothers. If you want to see then try and get a bid. Maybe.... just maybe.... you will make it through.

The best frats are FIJI, SAE, and SigEp , KA, Delt, ATO & kappa Sig. However, Kappa Alpha is not IFC. They are still a top one, whether that matters or not.

Strictly speaking, a fraternity is a "brotherhood." In the United States, on colleges campuses, fraternities are organizations that young men join, in which they live together in a house close to campus - acceptance of a newcomer into a fraternity is frequently dependent on successful completion of "initiation rites," also known as "hazing." Unfortunately, this frequently involves the consumption of massive amounts of alcohol, in fact, one reads about a young man dying of alcohol poisoning at a school almost every year.

Kappa Sigma, founded in 1400 in Italy; though it wasn't founded in America till 1869.

The Beta House, was created by the comedians, as a joke, where any pledge who pledged, would have to do, crazy, and rediculous things, to become a brother.

The motto of Iota Phi Theta is 'Not Resting Upon One!'.

some of them go into groups like fraternities to seek companies, to be popular especially in schools and universities and some to have such ally in trouble..cowardice oftentimes push them so they would have lots of friends despite of the harm and pain as circumstance in entering in such organization..it's not secret that fraternities commit suicide and violates the law against hazing, worst, they commit murder in some instances and always..fraternity conjures hazing, and hazing conjures murder...!

The motto of Delta Phi is 'Semper Ubique'.

AEA stands for “αγωνίζομαι επί άκρος“ which translates to strive for the highest. The door knock is: two knock, two knocks, one knock. Handshake is the two brothers lock hands like they’re doing a normal handshake and get closed together to conceal it. Then the older brother (one who was initiated the longest ago) quickly and slightly jerks their hand left and back to center (like they’re opening a doorknob). The it’s the newer brother’s turn to do the same thing. The day before you officially cross you have to stay up all night and watch the sunrise together and spend alone time with your class and the guiding spirit; the “sunrise ceremony“ as it’s called. Another event is ”joint ceremony“ which begins when you get randomly kidnapped. A brother comes up behind you and covers your eyes, puts on a blindfold, and takes you to a random secret location. They’re completely silent the whole time until they remove the blindfold, and you see all the psi tbs members are there. All they do is sing some songs and talk and you go home. The 3 main rituals (not including the 2 ceremonies) are bland and feel like a Catholic church mass. The biggest secret of all is that psi is a club for the elite and not a brotherhood based on character.

While the Alpha Phi Alpha website and numerous blogs and articles say that Dr. West is a member, how he became one is unclear. We do not know much about whether he pledged as an undergraduate or joined later. But we do know that he is very proud of his affiliation.

She is an honorary member; however our honorary members are official members who have taken our sorority's oath. The only difference is that honorary members are extended an invitation to join the sorority and have done extraordinary things in their communities and/or professional fields; therefore making them exempt from some of the sorority's requirements for membership. In other words, some honorary members have not gone to college, which is a requirement for others seeking membership.

yes this is international fraternity

this is onlyfor sisters of Alpha Phi to know
