coed frat/soro
 
i'm looking to start a coed frat at my campus at woodbury university in burbank, ca and i tried looking up some existing frats, but i only found a couple and i have yet to find one that fits us. so i was wondering if anyone knew of any and website addresses so that i could check them out. or if i dont find one that fits, can someone give me some information or tips on starting our own coed frat.?

Why do you hit on girls on GC like this? You were hitting on girls in the DG forum like 2 weeks ago.

COED FRATS
 
Coed groups haven't really worked, some elite campuses Dartmouth, Brown etc. have 1 or two coed groups, remnants of the 60's mostly ,some smaller Fraternities allow coed groups PSI U does ,but there just doesn't seem to be any push for coed social groups.
DU at Chicago tried to go coed in the 1970's but our convention turned them down every time on 90% negative votes.

Frasorority!!
 
I'm assuming you mean a social.. ahem.. co-ed fraternity?

There are co-ed fraternities, but I think most are specialized (academic, religious, etc.) rather than social.

Make a local!

LightBulb 10-02-2005 01:21 PM

the basics
 
After you get an interest group together, write a constitution (you can ammend it later, but you need framework), decide on colors, symbols, crest, etc. Start having some brotherhood activities and then planning the pledging rituals and eventually the initiation rituals. Publicize, socialize, then hold your first rush.

ETA: Keep in mind I don't belong to a local; one of those folks could probably help you better.

There is a co-ed fraternity at my school called APO...They are technically a "service" based fraternity, but they are national and could be what you are looking for.

Tom Earp 10-02-2005 03:26 PM

A Very Large Difference between Social and Service Groups!:)

If You have to ask, then You dont know Jeeves!:rolleyes:

Ok? A "service" based fraternity still lends itself to giving the members a social group. They do a lot of stuff together that other fraternities do (i.e. mixers sometimes, homecoming, greek week). Their focus is just more on doing the community service and not on partying as much or having a house.

Maybe it just depends on the campus. Some groups that are made for service party just as much, if not more than some of the other groups, just because the rules governing the service group is much looser than on the social groups.

i'm looking for more of a social frat with some service.

IU used to have a coed social fraternity called Alpha Theta Tau when I was there in the early-mid 90s. One of my APO brothers was also in that. I went to a couple AT&T (as we called them) parties but I don't know too much about them other than that.

-- Alpha Delta Phi Society (comprised of chapters that split from Alpha Delta Phi Fraternity in order to be co-ed)

-- St. Anthony Hall (a.k.a., Delta Psi, which technically calls itself a literary society)
