Big/Little brother programs

[sigmanuzk]

The way we run our Little/Big bro program is that in the early weeks of the semester usually at the second or third candidate meeting we ask each candidate to write down three brothers that they would like to have as a big bro. The marshal then decides who from those three would be the best mentor/bigbro for that particular candidate. About a month into the program we have a big bro revealing night where the candidates learn who there big brothers are .

Big Brothers are responsible for making sure that their little brothers are on task and often give advice. They are also supposed to buy their little bro's first set of letters.

The way we began our families was that we picked four influential brothers in our chapter's history and went from their little brother(s) down the line. this system has worked very well for us since we first began using it in the late 80's.
