NPHC (NATIONAL PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL) INTAKE
Both undergraduate and graduate/alumni chapter members must realize that
bringing new members into the NPHC affiliate organization is based upon
the aspirant's possession of specific qualifications. Individual chapters
must be guided by membership identification and selection standards which
will promote the building of a strong and effective chapter.
There are three important components in the membership intake process for
NPHC affiliate organizations. Generally, the process includes (1) a
preinduction/orientation period, (2) the final induction ceremony, and (3)
an in-depth education program. Each affiliate organization implements the
guidelines and details of its own membership intake process.
Any violations of an organization's set program should be referred
directly to that organization's leadership or national headquarters.
The final pledge is the oath of allegiance taken by a candidate from which
he/she cannot withdraw. Each organization has its own ritual and ceremony,
but all basically have the objective that this rite is intended to be
impressive.
Each chapter must file, in the designated place and the specified time
for the college and member organization, a list of - intended candidates.
No chapter shall intake members prior to meeting the requirements of the
college/university and its national organization.
No intake shall be held without the presence of at least one chapter
member or adviser.
HAZING in any form, including physical and mental abuse, is prohibited
and will not be tolerated.
No person who has resigned from one sorority or fraternity may hold
membership in any other organization in the NPHC.
Each member organization determines its own rules governing membership
in other Greek-letter organizations which are nonmembers of NPHC.
