Pledge Training Manual - Chapter 1

Human beings striving for ever richer and bigger lives seek a closer association with one another than is usually provided by casual and erratic contact with their fellow men. Thus came into being various groups, defined as brotherhoods or SISTERHOODS.

In these groups, they pledge to one another mutual promises of loyalty and comradeship which engender fonder and more enduring relationships than elsewhere available. The benefits have been long proven and well deserved.

BETA SIGMA PHI is, of course, such a mutual benefit organization. ITS RITUALS ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF ALL IT WAS OR HAS BECOME.
