CWRU Recruitment Rules

These Rules govern how recruitment operates and what is allowable for chapters during that time.

PNM Code of Ethics

As a participant in Recruitment, it is important that PNMs also treat the process, chapters, and each other with respect. When a PNM registers, they will confirm that they will follow this Code.

Member Code of Ethics

This code of ethics is designed to inspire our members, reinforce exemplary conduct and values-based leadership and perpetuate lifelong membership to enrich the sorority and Panhellenic experience.

Sorority Guidebook

Learn a little about our 10 sororities before Primary Recruitment starts!

Panhellenic Recruitment Alleged Infraction Report Form

We hope that your experience is amazing and that nothing goes wrong, but things happen that are out of PNMs' control. PNMs can fill this out on their own, talk with their Recruitment Counselor or any member of the Panhellenic Recruitment Team, including Greek Life staff.

Financial Transparency

The goal of the NPC Financial Transparency Program is to provide a tool to inform potential new members (PNMs) about the real costs of Panhellenic chapter membership prior to and during recruitment allowing PNMs to make informed decisions about sorority membership. Chapters are currently updating the finance information, so check back in early August for details!

Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding Agreement (MRABA)

After the PNMs' last event, if they wish to receive a bid from any chapter they saw on day 4, they will need to sign the MRABA. This video will be played at signing time also. If there are any questions about this Agreement, reach out to greeklife@case.edu
