Fraternity Oath
As a condition precedent to my initiation into Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity, I pledge my word and honor to the following conditions, without mental reservation or evasion, and promise to abide by these conditions unless released by the Supreme Board of Governors of the Fraternity:
-
I realize that I am required to remain as an active, dues paying undergraduate member for four full years, or until I receive my undergraduate degree, whichever comes first.
-
I realize that there is no resignation or inactive status in Alpha Epsilon Pi and that membership is for life unless I am expelled for a cause.
-
I realize that the fraternity badge is only leased to me for the term of my good standing in the fraternity, that it is not my property, that I have not purchased it and I agree to release it upon the request or demand of the Executive Vice President or other authorized officer or employee of the fraternity.
-
I realize that where a chapter maintains residential quarters and dining facilities, that unless the house is filled or unless excused by the chapter’s Executive Committee plus the Chapter Advisor and/or Regional Governor, I am required to live in the house and take my meals there, so long as I maintain residence on the campus and do not live at home with my parents or legal guardians. I realize that I must pay for my bed if I choose not to reside in the house, that the chapter has the right to determine the order of seniority for living in or out of the house, that only the Chapter Advisor may excuse me for meals and that there are no rebates for meals missed.
-
I realize that my obligation to the fraternity does not cease when I graduate, but that membership is for life and I promise to support the fraternity financially and actively as an alumnus and to participate in the fraternity’s alumni activities to the extent of my ability.
I have read the fraternal oath and the Risk Management Policy of Alpha Epsilon Pi and agree to its provisions.
