Fraternity should complement and enhance the educational mission
of the host institution.
The Fraternity is committed to fostering a close cooperative partnership
with all colleges and universities
where chapters exist. The Fraternity should promote academic achievement
and assist each member to achieve his academic potential. By helping
members adjust to the college environment, we can help them pursue
their degree goals. Co-curricular activities can be as valuable
as the classroom experience; hence, the Fraternity should promote
involvement in all aspects of campus life.
The Fraternity should promote the ideal
of Brotherhood.
The creation of lifelong friendships is a primary benefit of Fraternity
membership. The Fraternity fulfills the need of students to belong
to an extended family and frequently provides the opportunity to
enhance those personal relationships through group living situations.
As Brothers, our members have an obligation to have a caring concern
for the welfare of our members. Brotherhood is a lifetime commitment;
therefore, we should encourage
strong alumni-undergraduate relationships for the mutual benefit
of the students and the alumni.
The Fraternity should actively contribute to the personal growth
and development of its members.
We teach young men social skills that will benefit them throughout
their lifetime. The multitude of leadership opportunities available
through the Fraternity prepares members for success in their chosen
careers. Chapters should organize well-rounded programs and strive
for excellence and quality in all undertakings.
The
Fraternity should promote ethical behavior and decision-making.
The lessons taught from Fraternity ritual should be incorporated
into the daily lives of the members. Kappa Sigmas are expected to
act as gentlemen at all times, and the Fraternity must demand the
highest standards of personal conduct. The Fraternity should instill
a sense of responsibility and integrity. The dignity of all persons
shall always be respected; intolerant or abusive
behavior cannot be tolerated.
The Fraternity should encourage service to others.
Members, individually and collectively, should work toward the betterment
of their campus and community... and in so doing contribute to the
betterment of themselves.
