DEAR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES, ON BEHALF OF THE INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL (IFC) HERE AT THE UNIVERSITY
Lane Jones
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I would like to present this summer’s recruitment informational packet. This packet is designed to serve as a preliminary introduction to the IFC and our recruitment process. Consisting of 25 chapters, we boast some of the most involved, respected, and driven individuals at Carolina. We stand strong behind our contributions to the community through philanthropy, we excel academically, and we remain involved in other co-curricular commitments outside of our chapters, from student government to working with various philanthropic organizations.
We stand strong behind our contributions to the community through philanthropy, we excel academically, and we remain involved in other co-curricular commitments. The recruitment process can, at times, seem a bit overwhelming. As such, we, as a council, will provide open informational sessions at each Orientation Session, as well as an IFC Recruitment Kickoff on August 25th at 8:45PM in the Agora, located in Granville Towers. In addition, enclosed at the end of this packet is a description of each IFC fraternity on campus and the recruitment chair’s contact information. These individuals will act as your point of contact for their respective chapter to aid you in the recruitment process. As Vice President of Recruitment of the Interfraternity Council, I will also be at your disposal for any help or advice you may need. Should you have any questions at any time, please feel free to reach out to me at cljiii@live.unc.edu. I encourage you to discover as many of our chapters as you can and to reach out to voice any questions you may have. It is my sincere hope that you come explore our community and learn more about who we are, and all that our organizations can offer you. Sincerely, LANE JONES

CODE OF CONDUCT RISK MANAGEMENT All IFC fraternities at UNC-Chapel Hill have a risk management program that conforms to the standards of their individual national organization and complies with University policies, as well as applicable federal, state, and local laws. Additionally, the Interfraternity Council has adopted a risk management policy for their 25 member organizations. Each fraternity is also required to have a written accountability/judicial process that addresses, at a minimum, issues of hazing, alcohol and drug violations, and interpersonal violence, and the IFC maintains a standards board to hear and adjudicate matters of chapterwide misconduct. Each semester, every IFC fraternity participates in mandatory risk management training through the Office of Fraternity & Sorority Life and Community Involvement, which covers reducing risk related to fire safety, social events, and house management. Additionally, the IFC is committed to fostering organizations that provide a positive, and safe environment for new and existing members. The IFC expressly prohibits hazing or any activity that puts a student’s physical, emotional, or psychological health and safety at risk. Through the OFSL-CI, there are two ways for students, parents, faculty, staff, and community members to report incidents that are physically, emotionally, or psychologically detrimental and damage the integrity of the fraternity community. The anonymous Hazing Hotline is available in two forms: an
online form available at ofslci.unc.edu and a 24hour telephone hotline available at 919.962.8298. The Interfraternity Council Judicial Board investigates all reports of hazing thoroughly and adjudicates policy violations as appropriate.
NEW MEMBER EDUCATION The IFC believes that a student’s new member period, which lasts no longer than eight weeks, should be one of growth and discovery. During this period, a new member learns about the history and rituals of his fraternity, and becomes better acquainted with his fellow new members and with all of the members of his chapter. It is the hope of the Interfraternity Council that the active members of the chapter will serve as mentors by sharing experiences, offering advice, and monitoring the study habits and academic achievements of each new member. To ensure that these goals are met, the IFC maintains a Code of Conduct that outlines a set of standards to be upheld and embraced by the fraternity community, and are enforced by the IFC Judicial Board. For a full copy of the IFC Code of Conduct, please refer to ifcunc.com. To further enhance the new member education process, the IFC also hosts four mandatory new member education sessions throughout the course of each semester. These informative, engaging sessions cover a variety of topics, from drug and alcohol safety to making the most of your fraternity experience.

PHILANTHROPY & SERVICE
A
t UNC-Chapel Hill, our IFC fraternities have cemented a precedent of excellence in improving the greater community through philanthropy and community service. Throughout the school year, our chapters work with one another to raise money for a multitude of causes, from Relay for Life and the Eve Carson Memorial Fund, to Camp Kesem and the “Brothers For” Habitat project. Each chapter dedicates
6
thousands of hours each year to their own local and/or national philanthropy, including the Children’s Miracle Network, the American Red Cross, and the N.C. Children’s Hospital. Philanthropy and community service are longhonored traditions of our fraternity system, and we strongly encourage all new members to find personally meaningful ways to continue this tradition.
SCHOLARSHIP
B
y joining a fraternity here at UNC, you enter an environment that nurtures academic excellence. In fact, on average, Greek students consistently perform better academically than the general student body. For the past 16 consecutive years, the All-Greek GPA has been higher than the AllUniversity GPA. For example, for the fall 2016
semester, the All-Greek GPA was 3.3, while the All-University GPA was 3. Fraternity men here at UNC are no exception to this trend of Greek students’ strong academic performance. Each chapter also has multiple programs in place, such as brother tutoring programs and academic incentives, to support those who may struggle at any point.

A WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT Being part of a fraternity my first year not only engaged me in a dynamic variety of conversations, activities, and opportunities, but it also provided me with a strong support system in the transition to college life. Finding a comfort zone on campus is a crucial part of the first year Matt Mengert, mmengert@live.unc.edu
experience, and it was assuring to know that I always had a community of great guys that would be there for me through highs and lows. Greek Life has plugged me into the Carolina community, by helping me make friends and build alumni relationships that will last a lifetime. Now, whenever I walk into my fraternity house, I find someone who’s ready to join me in whatever endeavor I’m pursuing—whether it’s going to a UNC Lacrosse game, studying for a final in Davis library, sitting in on an interesting campus lecture, or driving to the mountains for a weekend hiking trip. Looking back at my decision to go Greek, I realize that it did more than just enhance my Carolina experience; it made me into a better man, and that’s something that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
