Review Criteria

While there are many fraternities out there, when looking for the one for you there of course are certain criteria to look for. The first criteria you need to identify when out searching for a fraternity would have to be campus involvement. The reason you need to assess the fraternities’ campus involvement is because this is where you can get involved and make strides around the campus or community, it also opens up opportunities for the fraternity itself and makes the public image of the fraternity much better. Another criterion to look for would be the size of the chapter you are thinking about joining, this is important because a smaller fraternity has a harder time getting things accomplished and is not as well respected, while at the other end of the spectrum a fraternity that is too large usually impedes true brotherhood because members don’t even know all of the brothers in their chapter very well. The third criteria would be athletic prowess, everyone likes to win and if you join a fraternity you want it to also be a winner at sports as well as events such as sorority philanthropies, its important because it again shows that your fraternity is talented and it helps at rush to say that you play well in sports. The fourth criteria is money raised for charities/community service, this is very important you want to have a well rounded fraternity that not only has fun but also helps out the community around it again helping the overall image of the fraternity.
