Fraternity Executives Association (FEA) Summer Meeting is
just around the corner. This year's conference is being
held in Savannah, GA July 6 - 10, 2003. We look forward
to seeing you for those who will be in attendance.
This conference is for all national executives
and some staff to attend educational meetings in preparation
for the upcoming year. FEA is also a wonderful networking
opportunity for FEA members and vendors alike.
Below is a brief description
of member's obligations and duties.
The Fraternity Executives Association
Code of Ethics
Mindful that they represent constantly and
continually, on and off duty, the Fraternity System and
all its constituent and component parts, both individual
and group, as well as their colleagues and associates in
the Fraternity Executives Association, the entire professional
staff of member fraternities is expected to observe conscientiously
these ethical standards;
- TO be in all their work truly professional, teachers
and experts whose lessons are inculcated by personal example
as well as by precept;
- TO enrich and broaden their professional standing through
further diligent pursuit of education and training;
- TO utilize every opportunity to improve public understanding
of fraternities, of the principles upon which they are
based, and of their role of higher education;
- TO respect the principles and rights of fraternal confidentiality
and the individual uniqueness of each fraternity as expressed
through policies and programs adopted by the fraternity's
governing body;
- TO speak at no time in a derogatory way of another fraternity's
policies and programs or indulge in personalities;
- TO refuse to communicate in any way with the members,
pledges, or associate members of any so as to weaken their
loyalty to their own fraternity, or bring about secession
from the parent fraternity, or affiliation with any other
fraternity;
- TO uphold the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of
the Fraternity Executives Association, to share freely
with others their professional knowledge, to accept their
share of interfraternity responsibilties, and to encourage
and build healthy competition, pride of organization,
larger loyalties and maturity of judgement.
Recognizing that the strength of each member Fraternity
is directly related to the strength of the Fraternity
System as a whole, we the members of the Fraternity Executives
Association subscribe to these statements of ethical standards
conducive to the principles of harmony and to the general
welfare of all.
"Our greatest strength is the sharing, the
sympathy, the walking in the other person's moccasins that
is and always has been so much of FEA ..."
-Wilford A. Butler, CAE
