The Panhellenic Creed
We, as Undergraduate members of
women’s fraternities, stand for good
scholarship, for guarding of good
health, for maintenance of fine
standards, and for serving, to the best
of our ability, our college community.
Cooperation for furthering fraternity
life, in harmony with its best
possibilities, is the ideal that shall
guide our fraternity activities.
We, as Fraternity Women, stand for
service through the development of
character inspired by the close
contact and deep friendship of
individual fraternity and Panhellenic
life. The opportunity for wide and
wise human service, through mutual
respect and helpfulness, is the tenet
by which we strive to live. BWU

Baldwin Wallace Fraternity and
Sorority Life Hazing Policy
Hazing is absolutely not tolerated,
condoned, or accepted in the Baldwin
Wallace Fraternity and Sorority

University policies are very specific in
prohibiting activities that could lead to
such events. The national policies of
each group on campus are also very
specific in prohibiting hazing, and
the University supports them by
enforcing all pertinent policies and
laws.
FAQ’s
About Panhellenic Recruitment
Recruitment Parties During the week of recruitment, there are three different rounds of parties that
occur. These parties give you an opportunity to learn about Fraternity and
Sorority Life at BW, as well as about the individual sororities. This is also an
opportunity for the members of the chapters to get to know you and educate you
about sorority life. Below are descriptions of the parties, as well as a brief
description of appropriate attire for each night.
Philanthropy/Social (Night 1-Wednesday OR Thursday)
During these events, Potential New Members will have the opportunity to get to
know sisters from each of the 5 chapters. This is a time to learn about each
chapter’s philanthropy, and meet several members in a more informal setting.
Take time during this part to ask questions to chapter members that you may
have to get a better understanding of what it is like to be a member of that
chapter and Fraternity/Sorority Life as a whole. Lite refreshments will be
provided for your enjoyment. Dress for this evening is business casual.
Sisterhood Night (Night 2-Friday)
During these events, Potential New Members will be invited back to certain
chapters. This is based upon mutual selection from the Potential New Member,
as well as the chapters. This is a night where chapters are going to showcase
their sisterhood and share in depth why they decided to become members. You
will learn more about how the chapter works (chapter meetings, events, etc.)
and gain a better sense of the chapter as a whole. During this night, it is
imperative to ask deeper questions to chapter members that may aide you in
finding that deeper understanding of what it really means to be Greek. Dress for
this event is business casual attire.
Preference Night (Night 3-Saturday)
Preference parties are by invitation only, and based on the mutual selection
process, Potential New Members will only attend 2-3 parties. This is a time
when PNM’s will gain a closer look at sorority life, each chapter’s sisterhood in a
formal setting. Dress for this evening is more formal, cocktail attire.
How do I decide which chapter to join?
Recruitment is a mutual selection process for the potential
new members and the chapters. Each night you will visit the
chapters, and as the week goes on you will realize which
sororities you feel a natural fit with, and the chapter members
will figure out which new members inspire them. You will fill
out a recruitment ranking each night outlining which sorority
you felt most comfortable and had the best interactions. This
is not necessarily a process that the chapters or the Potential
New Members are able to control, but it is one that requires
patience and trust. If you trust the process, all will end up
well.
How do I register for recruitment?
You can register for sorority recruitment online at
https://www.bw.edu/stulife/greek/recruit/sorority/. You
must be registered by September 14th to participate in
formal recruitment.
What is a legacy?
A Legacy is any
Potential New Member
who has a mother,
grandmother, or sister
who is/was a member of
a sorority while in
college. You should talk
to your family members
to see if any of those
respective individuals
were members of any of
the chapters on BW’s
campus.
I am hesitant about going
through recruitment,
because I'm not sure what to
expect. How do I know if
Fraternity and Sorority Life is
right for me?
You will never know until you try!
Try by going through Formal
Recruitment! You will get to meet all
the chapters, spend time with their
members, and see all that the
Fraternity and Sorority Community
has to offer!
What do sororities look for in their members?
It is difficult to pin point what sorority women are looking for. A
strong academic background is important to sororities since they
require a minimum grade point average. Sorority women are
looking for members who are compatible with their current
members. Most importantly, sororities are looking for members who
want to participate, be active, and stay active in the chapters.
Membership selection is not an easy task, and it varies from sorority
to sorority. Every chapter wants to add a diverse, comfortable, and
active group of new members every year. Just be yourself, and let
your personality shine.
What are the responsibilities of a
chapter member?
Chapter members are the sole reason that a chapter either thrives of
struggles. Members have several responsibilities including
attending events, paying dues, and being an active member and
leader in the chapter. Honestly, chapter members get out only as
much as they are willing to put into their chapter. There are weekly
chapter meetings usually held on Sunday evenings which members
are expected to attend. Each chapter also has their own
philanthropy and community service events, plus any social events
they create. Greek Council, CPC, and IFC create events for the
entire community, and there is always time for bonding and making
memories with your sisters.
The Interfraternity
Council Creed
We, the Interfraternity Council, exist to
promote the shared interests and values
of our member fraternities: leadership,
service, brotherhood, and scholarship.
We believe in Fraternity and that the
shared values of Fraternity drive the IFC
to create better communities, better
chapters, and better men.
We work to advance the academic
mission of the host institution, to enable
fraternal organizations to grow and
thrive through collaboration and
teamwork, to provide an outlet for self-
governance and accountability, and to
model and teach ethical leadership. In a
spirit of mutual support and betterment,
we, the men of the Interfraternity
Council, pledge to elevate the Ritual and
the values of the member organizations.

FAQ’s About IFC Formal Recruitment
How do I decide which chapter to join?
Recruitment is a mutual selection process for the potential new
members and the chapters. Each night you will visit the chapters, and
as the week goes on you will realize which fraternities you feel a
natural fit with, and the chapter members will figure out which new
members inspire them. Once you have fulfilled the 5 chapter visit
requirement, you are free to attend only the events you
wish to continue attending. There is not a specific way in which
members decide which chapter they will become members of, but if
you build strong relationships with the members throughout the week
of recruitment, you will find the place you will be able to call home.
What is a legacy?
A Legacy is any Potential New
Member who has a father,
grandfather, or brother who is/was

members of any of the chapters on
