Ours is called "The Teke Guide" an excellent read if i do say so. A good chunk of it can be found at our IHQ site if you're curious.

Phi Psi's is "The Manual of the Phi kappa Psi Fraternity." Not too original, but I know that their are others who have very interesting names.

Ours is "Delta Zeta and You" but when I went through it was just called "The Pledge Handbook". Still the same stuff, though.

I noticed how most the fraternity's pledge manuals are hardback where the sororities are paperback. I wonder why that is. I am not saying this is true in every case just from what I have seen.

"A Life of Excellence" is the Delt Pledge Manual. I'm trying to remember what it was called when I pledged in 1966, but I can't.

Ours used to be The Manual of Delta Upsilon. Then it was Our Record. Now it is The Cornerstone: Delta Upsilon's Guide to College and Beyond. Yeah, a little long, that is why we just call it the Cornerstone. That is what we all get during pledging, but we also makes Pledge Manuals as a chapter that the Pledge Ed puts together.

I think the Cornerstone is a very good manual. I have read it and I think some parts are so cute. Like about how to balance your college career and make time for dates and stuff! I love DU!

I believe ours are called the "Alpha Gamma Delta Fraternity Education Manual" but they just revamped them so I don't know if they changed the name.

I think ours needs to be revamped. It will have a new edition next year. Also we had workbooks and interview books that we made. OUrs looked good. They had our letters going diangonal surrouding our coat of arms and hadour names, theta chi fraternity fall 2001 and beta class printed on them.  we rocked.

Leslie, I think ours are called something different now... I think I just remember a big 1904 - Alpha Gamma Delta Guide Book, or something to that extent.
Does anyone else's talk about the different orgs (NPC, NIC and NHPC) also?

Bologna Docet is what we use . . . IT needs to be updated.
I have read several Fraternity pledge books and they are all pretty similar in what they cover. In fact, there are probably 5-6 chapters that are almost exactly the same in each of them.
