Standards of Excellence

The Standards of Excellence initiative began in 2010 to renew focus on the integration of our core principles among all Greek chapters. This initiative was a response to a joint effort from staff, students, and the governing councils to build a process that would unify the goals and values of all fraternities and sororities. The result was 6 core areas of excellence that represent not only the goals of chapters, but also Fraternity and Sorority Programs and Services and our commitment of providing safe, meaningful, and transformative membership experiences. The Standards of Excellence program is built around 6 community pillars:

  1. Scholarship
  2. Community Service and Philanthropy
  3. Siblinghood
  4. Leadership and Values
  5. Safety and Risk Management
  6. Community Engagement and Belonging

Organizations are awarded the pillars of excellence award in each of the main Standards of Excellence pillars. These organizations are chosen for having the highest scores in each of the foundational Standards of Excellence areas.
