In their own words

October 22, 2017


This is a quote from the University of Virginia's website:

INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL

IFC Rush process is designed for rushees to get to know brothers, popular events and purposes of various fraternities. IFC Rush is the series of events during which a male student can decide to become a part of a fraternity. “Dorm Talks” are held late in the fall semester and are an informational session for men who are interested in joining a fraternity. There is a brief Informal Rush in late September for men who are upperclassmen and/or transfers, as well as a Formal Rush in late January that is open to all undergraduate men.

This is a quote from Phi Kappa Psi's December 2014 statement about the Rolling Stone article.  The statement was reprinted by the Washington Post:


Third, our Chapter’s pledging and initiation periods, as required by the University and Inter-Fraternity Council, take place solely in the spring semester and not in the fall semester.
