Why Isn’t Beta In The Greek Village?
Beta Theta Pi is in a unique situation, we are the only fraternity on campus to own our house and land. When the other fraternities moved out to the Greek Village, we maintained our desired location in the heart of the campus. Owning our property allows us to enjoy more freedom on our property as we are not governed by the same rules and regulations that the other fraternities are.
What Are The Requirements Of Being A Member?
Membership in Beta Theta Pi comes with meaningful commitments, including manageable monetary responsibilities and a dedication to upholding our values of moral and social conduct. We take our academics very seriously and are mindful of members' academic and personal priorities. We strive to ensure that involvement in our fraternity complements your schedule rather than overwhelms it. At Beta Theta Pi, we do not "make" Betas; we take Betas. If your values align with ours, the decision to join should feel natural and straightforward. If you have any questions, our president, recruitment chairmen or any other members are happy to provide further information and support.
How Safe is the Environment For New Members?
We have policies against hazing of any kind, believing that such practices diminish the dignity of the individual. We work hard to create an atmosphere of respect within our chapter, honoring each member for his beliefs and values.
How Many Active Members Does Beta Theta Pi Have
The active chapter is more than 50 strong and there are more than 2100 Gamma Omicron alumni. Beta Theta Pi has more than 142,000 living alumni throughout North America
What Is The Drinking Culture Like?
In Beta, we believe there is something for everyone and we put in the work to create and maintain a healthy lifestyle. We believe drinking is about balance, boundaries and being mindful. Some members choose to drink and some choose to abstain. Academics, house pride, and having a good time take priority over alcohol. We do not hesitate to hold each other accountable if someone requires help or is acting out of line. The great thing about Beta is that you can feel comfortable with your choices, which are honored by your brothers and the alumni.
How Much Time Do I Need to Commit?
It really depends on your role with the Fraternity. Senior executive members put in a lot of time and effort to keep Beta strong. If you join one of our athletic teams, get heavily involved in one of our philanthropic efforts, or come to every single social event, your time will obviously increase. Your responsibilities during your first year will usually require at least 4 hours a week. It is an environment that encourages involvement but isn’t overly demanding. Like anything worth doing, you get out of it what you put into it.
