18 Key primary prevention strategies include our annual Anti-Hazing Week sponsored by Order of Omega, which promotes education and community accountability through interactive programs and outreach. During the Fraternity and Sorority Life Summit, we host workshops that emphasize ethical leadership, bystander intervention, and strategies to build group cohesion without hazing. In addition, all fraternity and sorority members are required to complete annual antihazing training that reinforces these principles and outlines reporting procedures. Prospective members are also required to attend FSL 101, a foundational session that clearly defines hazing, identifies its various forms, and provides information on how to report suspected violations. Together, these efforts represent a comprehensive and proactive approach to preventing hazing before it occurs. Recruitment, Intake, and New Members Recruitment is determined at the discretion of the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office. The Fraternity and Sorority Life Office will determine who is eligible for recruitment each year and will consider GCAT scores and chapter status. Recruitment dates are determined by the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office with input from each council president. Eligibility for Recruitment/Intake Members According to the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office full time students who have a minimum 2.50 cumulative grade point average, or a 2.75 High School GPA may be recruited to a Social Greek-lettered organization. All potential new member(s) must attend at least one “FSL-101” to be eligible for Recruitment/Intake. Each potential new member (CFC and PC) must sign a Bid Card. Each chapter must receive approval from the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office prior to issuing a bid. For all UGC organizations, the new membership intake packet must be complete before intake can proceed. Eligibility of Membership Active membership will be restricted to currently enrolled, fulltime undergraduate NSU students. Only active and new members are considered for the official chapter roster. The official roster filed through the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office will be used for council dues, attendance requirements, and determination of grade point averages. Procedures for Membership Recruitment/Intake • All Recruitment/Intake events will be alcohol-free. • All Recruitment/Intake events must be held while school is actively in session (Fall and Spring semesters) and cannot be conducted during breaks such as summer, winter break, etc. • All Recruitment/Intake activities and events will take place on campus when possible. Off-campus events are subject to approval by the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office. • All members of recognized social Greek-lettered must be registered students at Nova Southeastern University (Fort Lauderdale/Davie Campus). • All organizations must follow their policies, locally, nationally and/or internationally to be eligible to participate in recruitment/intake. • The President of the Chapter and/or Council President may not be the intake coordinator/pledge class educator or be involved in the process. In the event, that you do not have enough members to conduct intake/pledge class then this must be approved by the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office.
