National Interfraternity Council Commission on Values and Ethics
We, as fraternity, believe in the development of the human spirit. The primary process by which the human spirt is developed is through the relationships we share with one another, ourselves, and with God. These relationships are the essence of our identity. It is through fraternity with others that we know who we are. The absence of positive relationships, not the absence of things and events, is a primary source of unhappiness. The fraternity is essentially making one statement: We believe in developing the human spirit. It is through the values expressed in our ritual that we share this belief. It is through our actions that we examplify this belief.
