Anti-Hazing

Beta Phi Pi is founded on the belief that all men are created equally and would not subject perspective members to any form of physical, intellectual, emotional and/or spiritual abuse known as "hazing." Instead, the fraternity would seek to uplift individuals, promote positive images and build strong, successful leaders who will make a difference in their communities.

Policy on Hazing

All members of Beta Phi Pi are I urged to obey the federal state local and institutional laws regarding hazing. Each members responsible to learn and understand the rules of conduct as it pertains to the Law.  Federal, State, Local and Institutional law supersedes anything written in Beta Phi Pi's policy.

Beta Phi Pi's policy may be changed or discarded in part and it's entirety as new laws and regulations are made known.
