Address Risky Behavior to Protect Your Institution & Uphold Accountability

There are major considerations facing both Greek organizations and institutions – leaving many to question their value in their collegiate community.  As a result, those not upholding their values and standards have garnered unwelcome local and national media attention. These behaviors are the antithesis of these organizations’ founding values, leaving student leaders and campus administrators frustrated and burdened with maintaining the balance of student/organization accountability; upholding the institution’s mission; and staying compliant with local, state laws, and soon to be federal laws.

Join us on Monday, December 9, 2024, when our expert presenter will discuss how to advise student leaders who are experiencing behavioral and leadership gaps; how to implement a comprehensive conduct process that demonstrates fundamental fairness, accountability, and appropriate outcomes; and how to properly involve key stakeholders to create strategic partnerships that minimizes institutional and personal liability.

Meet today’s students where they are and create a true paradigm shift within your campus community. Foster a shared desire to provide a safe environment and accountable community so your Greek students can engage, learn and graduate from your institution.

Topics Covered

You will gain crucial, actionable takeaways that will help you:

• Create a conduct process for Greek lettered organizations that engages students to be a part of the solution and holds them accountable to live and practice their founding values.
• Identify and challenge critical stakeholders (alumni, national organizations, concerned parents, current members) to gain buy-in and manage risk.
• Determine which high-risk behaviors are the most acute for your specific community and develop a plan for training and supporting organization leaders to address and achieve the critical change needed to safeguard all students.
• Empower students engaged in the conduct review process to apply restorative justice processes to demonstrate fundamental fairness while ensuring accountability and appropriate outcomes.
