F.A.Q• What majors are accepted in Triangle

Fraternity? Although we are most notable for our

engineering background, we also accept most majors in science, technology, or architecture.

• What if I’m worried about academics? We will never ask you to place Triangle

above your academics, your faith, or your family. We will take the necessary steps to ensure that you make it your top priority, as well. We have a library stocked full of notes and books from classes brothers have taken in the past, as well as four study wings to provide a great atmosphere to get your school work done. Also, since we all share very similar classes and majors, nearly anyone in the house can help you with your academics.

• What about hazing? We defi ne hazing as any action that

degrades the trust between our actives and new members. There is a strict no-hazing policy at Triangle. You will be chal-lenged to learn and grow by getting out of your comfort zone. We will congratulate you when you succeed, pick you up when you’re down, and support you at all times.

• What is Triangle’s purpose? The purpose of Triangle shall be to

maintain a fraternity of engineers,architects and scientists. It shall carry out its purpose by establishing chapters that develop balanced men who culti-vate high moral character, foster life-long friendships, and live their lives withintegrity.
