5 Star Chapter Excellence:
Greek organizations were founded to support the academic mission, vision, and values of the host institution where a chapter is recognized. The Office of Greek Life Programs conducts a yearly assessment of its chapters in order to determine how the core values of individual fraternities and sororities support West Chester University. It is also the intention of the Office of Greek Life Programs to evaluate its impact on the out of classroom experience at WCU.
Assessment of Chapters:
The assessment is composed of five different categories in which each chapter is evaluated. Each category has different criteria that are assigned point values. A score of 90 or higher in a specific category means the chapter is achieving the minimum standards set by the Office of Greek Life Programs and therefore, that chapter earns a star. The chapter that receives the highest point value in each of the categories below will get the chapter award for that category. The five stars and chapter awards are:
- Scholarship Development: A Chapter develops and maintains a sound scholarship program for both its members and new members in an attempt to enhance the academic success and contribute to the academic mission of the University.
- Chapter Development: A Chapter encourages leadership, as well as teaches and upholds the values of its organization to promote a positive Greek image on campus.
- Risk Management: A Chapter educates and promotes healthy lifestyles and actively aspires to reduce their risk by upholding the FIPG policy and the Anti-Hazing policy of the University. The chapter is responsible for its actions and understands the impact of its decisions on the Greek community and the entire University.
- New Member Development: A Chapter demonstrates progressive steps towards a positive pledge/associate/new member education program that respects and values new members. This program emphasizes the importance of ritual and values and assists in developing its newest chapter members into excellent lifetime initiates.
- Service to the Campus: A Chapter demonstrates outstanding service to campus life and programs and establishes community partnerships in order to contribute to the University and surrounding Borough.
