#1
|
1.Get acquainted as
quickly as possible with those in my chapter who command genuine admiration and
respect. Imitation is the wet nurse of leadership.
|
|
#2
|
2.Look up friends and
acquaintances of my home town and preparatory school and go out of my way to
speak to them on street and campus. Some snobs are born; many snobs are
self-made; most snobs get that way traveling the path of least resistance.

#3
|
3.Discard old high shool
habits; paraphernilia and thought processes not valid for college life. Even a
fish evolves in freer waters.
|
|
#4
|
4.At my own volition read
and study the history of my fraternity. History is made by those who know history.
|
|
#5
|
5.Do and overdo every
chapter task assigned to me. Fraternity row is dotted with ruins caused by too
many gold bricks.
|

6.Show hospitality for
all guests. Even skin-deep courtesy finally soaks in.
|
|

7.Attend every chapter meeting. Here unfolds
the drama of fraternity, and no one act or scene can I afford to miss.

8.Learn to meet and know
my professors on a man to man basis. Since the Garden of Eden, apple polishing is in bad repute.
|
|
#9
|
9.Withhold premature
judgment on my fellow pledges; but search for every grain of gold in their characters
and personalities. Guilt soon shows itself up; gold exists only for those who find it.

#10

10. Write to my parents
at least once a week. Loyalty begins at home.
|
|
#11
|
11. Discharge promptly
and cheerfully all financial, social, and other obligations incumbent on me as a member of the fraternity. One turn of
the top decides if I am a “put” or a “take.” And, what a difference it makes in
fraternity success or failure.
|
|
#12
|
12. Go to church
regularly. A fraternity ideal can flower into worship or wither by the wayside.
