Aod Prevention In A Consensus Building Environment, Charles G. Eberly
Aod Prevention In A Consensus Building Environment, Charles G. Eberly
Charles G. Eberly
This paper is a proposal to carry out a systematic program evaluation of the Sigma Phi Epsilon EDGE New Member Program, and was submitted to the Department of Education for funding in February 2009. The letter I received from the DOE indicated that my proposal did not fully meet the criteria for the grant competition since the study included students from many campuses rather than being focused on prevention programming for just one campus. The proposal does, however, provide evidence that new member education on prevention among fraternity men within six weeks of their joining an organization is promising. Compare …

A Formative Evaluation Of A National Sorority's Recruitment Program In Its Inaugural Year, Colleen Elizabeth Coffey, Charles G. Eberly
Charles G. Eberly
A formative evaluation of a national sorority's recruitment program was conducted to determine the effectiveness of selected program elements over the course of the first year's implementation. Primary objectives were to discover perceived needs among undergraduate members and chapters that were not met and to create program improvements based upon the respondent recommendations. A mixed method design employing a survey, the use of focus groups, and a review of available organizational recruitment data was utilized. Results indicated some participants understood and benefitted from the recruitment program, while others felt pressure to recruit, and still others appeared unaware of the program's …

Fraters In Facultate: Models Of Excellence In Fraternity Advising, Charles G. Eberly
Fraters In Facultate: Models Of Excellence In Fraternity Advising, Charles G. Eberly
Charles G. Eberly
This paper is the first of a number I planned to carry out on models of excellent in fraternity chapter advising. I am still working on the qualitative data I collected a decade and a half later. The thesis is that if one focused on models of excellence in fraternity operations to learn the manner in which successful leaders and organizations achieve their objectives, much greater progress would be made than focusing on the reduction of negative issues and problems such as alcohol abuse, sexual abuse, and hazing.
The Influence Of The Fraternity Ritual, Charles G. Eberly
The Influence Of The Fraternity Ritual, Charles G. Eberly
Charles G. Eberly
The article was based on a section of my 1966 master's thesis from Syracuse University, in which I surveyed the Grand Chapter officers and undergraduates from two chapters of a national fraternity on several topics that I thought were important to fraternity life at that time. Interestingly, the article remains one of relatively few focues on the fraternity ritual and its application to daily life even after 45 years' time. The journal, College Student Survey, no longer appears to be published.
