Why Theta Xi
Joining a Fraternity is an exquisite way to improve your college experience. By joining Theta Xi Fraternity you will gain benificial leadership opportunities not provided to other college students. Also, the process will advance your personal leadership skills and prepare opportunities to broaden your participation on campus and community organizations and events.
By joining Theta Xi at Clarion University, we will help you grow, mature, and fundamentally have a more well-rounded college experience!
Theta Xi prides itself on its diverse construction, both inside and outside the classroom. Academically, brothers are normally spread evenly between various majors. Outside of the classroom, members share different strengths and talents and are given many opportunities to learn about a variety of subjects. Theta Xi also has an active alumni organization made up of Clarion Alumni who are more than willing to assist brothers by giving career counseling or even providing employment.
Academic achievement is the primary goal of everyone in school, and we stress that fact. A Theta Xi is more likely to have better grades than someone who is not in a fraternity. We will also strive to maintain a chapter GPA that is one of the best in the fraternity system.

Recruitment Process
During Rush, held during the third week of each semester, fraternities will host rush events for potential members to meet current brothers to get a vibe for the atmosphere. If a potential member can indicate that he can be a good addition to Theta Xi, he may be offered a bid of membership which can either be accepted or declined.
Associate Member Process
Those that have accepted a bid will enter Theta Xi as associate members. The period of associate
membership is the beginning of your quest for Theta Xi Fraternity . As an associate member, you are treated by the
Fraternity as one who shall be taught the ideals and traditions of our
organization before becoming ready for full membership. Thus, the associate
member period is really an orientation and educational experience. When becoming an
associate member, you surrender none of your legal or social rights and none of
your moral or religious ideals and norms . Although your position as an
individual changes as you willingly take on new obligations by joining a
group, you will have also opened the door to many new opportunities.
Will Associate Members be hazed?
Absolutely NOT! Theta Xi strictly prohibits and bans hazing of Associate Members and current Members. We feel that the programs Associate Members participate in should be of a positive and valuable nature and has been clearly opposed to hazing and pre-initiation activities because they do not add positively to the associate member’s or member’s knowledge of the history, ideals, traditions, principles, and/or Ritual of Theta Xi Fraternity.
