It depends.

My Fraternity is part of the Professional Fraternity Association. I think most of our membership is probably ignorant of it. The PFA in no way governs us, AFAIK there are no policies we follow that have come about because of them. Its more of a cooperative group.

The various social GLO interfraternity groups are different (NIC, NPHC, NPC, et al). But not having first hand experience with this, I'll leave that to others.

We have changed due to things like federal laws. And our Risk Management policies are quite similiar to most other GLOs.

Oldu,
I was wondering how much information you could find on a local organization, at a much smaller school in upstate NY.
If not, no worries, but I was curious If you can, let me know and I'll post my information or PM you.
Thanks!

Perhaps you have a benevolent master, as it were, with the Professional Fraternity Association . However, my point still should apply. If - for what ever reason - the PFA decided to implement certain policies, the member organizations would either have to adhere to the policies or withdraw from the PFA.
