"I believe that the ideal chapter is made up of men

Who are bound at a common loyalty which transcends any personal selfishness;

Who realize membership means personal responsibility in bearing their share of the financial burden of the chapter and national organization;

Who bring credit to the fraternity by striving to attain the highest possible standards of scholarship;

Who safeguard the reputation of their chapter by keeping careful watch over their personal conduct;

Who uphold faithfully the traditions and activities of their college;

Who prepare themselves diligently to shoulder their full responsibilities as citizens;

I believe my chapter can become an ideal chapter, and I shall do my share to make it so."
