Recruiting new members is a year round process at Delta Chi. We are continuously searching for quality members with whom we can share our unmatched Brotherhood. The rush process is not only an opportunity for rushees to get to know the Fraternity and it's members, but it is also an opportunity for the active members in the Fraternity to get to know each rushee. Steps in the recruitment process could involve anything from talking and becoming friends with a Delta Chi in class, to going out to eat with a couple of Brothers, going to play Racket Ball or just hanging out, also there are many of our large annual parties such as Boots and Boxers, Rock the Bar, Stock the Bar, Toga or any of the other great events we hold each semester. If you are interested in learning more about Delta Chi and would like to take part in the recruitment process and are presently an undergraduate student at Tarleton State or are planning on being one in the near future, please think about the next up coming rush. I strongly urge you to look deeper into what we have to offer.

-What do I get if I join a fraternity?

Belonging to a Fraternity offers many advantages. We realize that your first purpose for coming to University is to obtain an education. We also realize that a University education encompasses more than academics and that the ability to deal and live with people is a demand that will be made on you for the rest of your life. As a well rounded man you must merge a solid academic background with intellectual and social maturity, and with confidence in yourself to deal with the problems that will face you in later years. Delta Chi is a very unique Fraternity because we provide an environment that will encourage you to strive for academic excellence, while at the same time discovering new social horizons in a variety of campus settings. Our Fraternity is involved in enhancing scholastic achievement, hosting social events, developing men into tomorrow's leaders, participating in sporting events, and much more. A Fraternity gets you involved, which helps you to develop different skills. It also allows you to develop contacts with other students, and a variety of Alumni involved in all areas of the business world. People join organizations for different reasons. Most of our members joined Delta Chi because they enjoyed the events, liked the people they met, and felt that our chapter had the best to offer them at this important time in their life. You will also become part of a larger network of over 120 chapters and 70,000 members across North America.

-What is your brotherhood like?

Delta Chi is unique among Fraternities in many respects and one such difference is the importance we place on building Brotherhood within the chapter. We strive to avoid rifts and clicks that often develop between Associate Member classes because our associate member program treats every member on an equal basis right from the start. The elimination of hazing it helps Delta Chi to strengthen our Brotherhood because resentment and the sense of inferiority is never present. Growth in a non-hazing environment will allow him to overcome the challenges he faces with the support from those around him. Delta Chi believes that Brotherhood is a journey, not a destination. Brotherhood involves more than just social events and Delta Chi holds monthly Brotherhood events like indoor and outdoor sports, retreats, social events, Brotherhood nights, and much, much more. Each member has their own definition of Brotherhood, but each revolves the Preamble of our Fraternity.

-Do you currently have a Fraternity house? 

No, but we did have one up until the Spring of 2007.  The owner of the house is a Brother and Alumni who couldn't keep up with the property after many years of service to the Fraternity.  The choice came to either purchase the house and renovate it, or to cut our losses and try to find a new house more suited to our needs.  We decided to search for a new house.  Do not let that fool you though, many of our Brothers live in houses across Stephenville that are, basically, unofficial Fraternity houses.  We are currently looking into new property, but we won't set a date as to when a new house will be purchased. 

-What about time commitment?

Time management means something different when you get to University than it did in High School. You now have so much available time on your hands that you can either use it or waste it. Our Associate Member program not only teaches you how to manage that time, but also how to get the most out of every day. As with any organization you will get out of it what you put into it, and the rewards will vary depending on the drive that you have. Our goal is to make you a better man. The time you spend perfecting that goal will not be taking up time, but will instead be the most important time you've ever spent.

-So how do I join?

Give our Rush Chair, Matthew Dutton, a call (254-541-2954), or if you see someone wearing our letters around campus stop them and ask them your questions.  We also have Rush events that you can go to so you can get to know the brothers and see if Fraternity life is right for you. We look forward to seeing you!
