概述

根据一项新生调查, fewer than five percent of our students plan on joining a fraternity or sorority. 然而, 罗彻斯特大学大约14%的学生最终加入了兄弟会或姐妹会.

一旦学生来到校园, 他们能够见到现在的兄弟会和姐妹会成员,并了解这些组织如何提供以下机会:

  • 友谊
  • 专业和个人发展
  • 在校园和社区的领导能力

Our fraternal community is highly regarded by students, faculty, alumni, and administrators. It has even won national recognition from higher education associations.

父母和家庭在支持兄弟会和姐妹会成员的发展方面起着关键作用. 为了帮助您了解最新信息,我们创建了一个 兄弟会及姐妹会资料(pdf). You can also find useful resource about our community on the 家长及家庭关系网站.

招聘

该大学及其兄弟会和姐妹会制定了结构化的招聘流程. 这有助于学生了解兄弟会和姐妹会的生活,并在合适的时间加入合适的组织.

学生 are eligible to join a fraternity or sorority during their second semester at Rochester. 如果转学生在其他机构至少修过一个完整学期的学分(AP学分不计算在内),则可以加入。.

学生 need time to establish themselves on campus by developing interests in classes, 参加俱乐部和组织, 参与社区活动, and holding leadership roles before joining a fraternity or sorority. 对他们来说,观察兄弟会和姐妹会社区以及它给校园带来的价值也很重要.

学生 have an entire semester to meet fraternity and sorority members in classes; attend social, 教育, 文化, and philanthropic events; and develop a true sense of the value and responsibility of fraternity or sorority membership. By the time they are eligible to join an organization, students should know a good deal about the organization they wish to join and, 更重要的是, about the men and women they hope to call brothers and sisters.

Every fraternity and sorority is part of one of three governing councils. 的se councils set recruitment guidelines for their member organizations. 我们鼓励您的学生尽可能多地了解组织,以寻找最适合的.
