6. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON RISK MANAGEMENT
+( ,hy is everyone dumping on us-
A. The National Fraternity isn't "dumping" on you, it's protecting you. Society no longer
tolerates the "animal house" image of the 1970's. People are simply fed up. Universities are
shutting down their fraternity systems, parents won't let their sons join, city and county
zoning boards refuse to grant building variances for fraternity houses, and offending
chapters and chapter officers are being sued, jailed, or both. Leaders of all fraternities are
being pushed to find answers to the values-related problems facing fraternal groups.
+( ,on.t the /is$ Management 0olicy $ill us on campus-
A. No. We are by no means alone. ATO and the 2% other fraternities operating under the same
Risk Management Policy comprise &0' of all national college fraternity chapters. Odds are
that these chapters make up the majority of your campus IFC. With the majority of IFC
members working together, you can pass a bylaw requiring everyone to follow the same
rules.
+( The drin$ing age is un#air(
A. While it can be argued that the legal drinking age is unfair, it is still the law and must
therefore be followed.
+( !ur house is a private residence(
A. Even if your chapter house is a private residence you still have an obligation to uphold the
law and Alpha Tau Omega policies. A fraternity house is not a tavern, and it is irresponsible
and illegal to act like one.
+( ,hat is a #raternity without alcohol-
A. Alcohol doesn't rank up there with Friendship, Leadership, and Service. Brotherhood, n(t
beer, is the base of our Fraternity.
+( Can we have $egs-
A. No. A keg is considered a common source of alcohol. Providing a common source of any
alcoholic beverage -- be it beer, alcoholic punch, or an open bar -- implies that it is provided
by or on behalf of the chapter, regardless of who actually purchased it.
+( Can we buy alcohol through a %slush #und%-
A. No. The Policies and Procedures specifically state that no member or members shall
coordinate the purchase of alcohol for the chapter or its members. A)) parties will be *$O*
for members and guests alike.
7.18 Members Manual
+( Can we have any alcohol at parties-
A. Yes. There are three ways to have alcohol at chapter parties and comply with the Risk
Management Policy, +r(,i-in. that you also follow a)) a++)icab)e /tate, )(ca) an- uni,er/it0
re.u)ati(n/:
1. The party is BYOB, and only persons of legal drinking age consume alcohol.
2. The party is held away from the chapter house at a hotel or restaurant where alcohol
may be provided at a cash bar by a vendor with a liquor license.
3. The chapter contracts with a caterer with a liquor license to provide individual drinks
at a cash bar. The caterer provides a bartender responsible for checking IDs and takes
all excess alcohol back after the party.
+( Minors drin$( How can we be e1pected to alter a societal trend-
A. The simple fact is that we must uphold the law. Fraternities have long been viewed as havens
for underage drinking. If our reputation is to change and our survival is to be guaranteed,
we must halt any implied endorsement of illegal activities.
+( The 2ational Fraternity is doing this 3ust to protect itsel# -- the Chapter Minimum 4uidelines o# !perations
are unen#orceable(
A. If the National Fraternity were to enact Chapter Minimum Guidelines of Operations and do
nothing to enforce it, the resulting liability would be far greater than if it had done nothing at
all. The Chapter Minimum Guidelines of Operations must be enforced -- to protect b(t1 your
chapter and its officers, and every other chapter in the National Fraternity.
+( 5oes this policy apply to alumni groups-
A. Yes, the Risk Management Policy applies to undergraduates and alumni alike. Founders
Day and Homecoming celebrations have the same options as undergraduate parties. Alumni
have been notified of the Chapter Minimum Guidelines of Operations through T1e ATO
a)m. However, it is up to your chapter to notify your alumni of the same through chapter
alumni newsletters and alumni event announcements.
+( ,hy do we need insurance i# we don6t have a house-
A. As the saying goes, "anyone can sue anyone at any time for any reason". Not having a house
doesn't mean that a chapter can afford to be sued if something happens at a party, a
community service event, or even a chapter meeting. Every chapter has some degree of risk.
The purpose of this entire program is to reduce risk to persons and property to the best of
our ability.
+( 5oes the &T! Board o# 5irectors have the authority to en#orce these 0olicies and 0rocedures-
A. The Board of Directors has the authority under the National Bylaws and Policies and
Procedures to do all things necessary and proper for the good and welfare of Alpha Tau
Omega, including it`s chapters and members, both alumni and undergraduates.
Members Manual 7.19
+( ,hat happens to chapters that don6t #ollow these 0olicies and 0rocedures-
A. Upon initiation, every Brother of Alpha Tau Omega swears the Oath of Obedience. This
includes obedience to all enactments of the Board of Directors and the General Assembly.
Yes, individuals and chapters can and will be disciplined for non-compliance. However, it is
our hope that chapters and house corporations will work together with the volunteers and
staff of ATO to address this most important issue.
+( ,ho will en#orce the /is$ Management 0olicy-
A. You will and we will! The chapter officers, Board of Trustees, National Officers, and NHQ
staff of all participating national fraternities will enforce it together. Because if we don't, the
police, the universities, and the courts will.
If you witness a violation by another fraternity, report it immediately to the ATO National
Headquarters at 1-200-342-422&. NHQ will get word into the enforcement system. This is
not "ratting" on your friends or rivals. It's keeping ATO and all fraternities alive. And it's
keeping chapter officers out of court and out of jail.
+( ,ho is responsible on the chapter level-
A. All officers, chapter members -- specifically the Chapter President and the Risk
Management Officers/Social Chairmen -- and Board of Trustees.

- Organize parties around a theme.
- Organize events at hotels and restaurants. Have a vendor with a liquor license provide a
cash bar, and make sure guests have safe transportation to and from the gathering.
- Use printed invitations.
- Hire appropriate security to enforce rules and maintain order.
- Check IDs at the door. Give each guest and Brother of legal drinking age a hospital bracelet
to wear as proof of age.
- Have all attendee's coolers or bottles checked in at a bar or designated area, labeling each
with a number. Then mark the hand of the guest with the corresponding number.
- FOOD -- Timing is important! Your early serving of such protein-rich foods as meats,
cheeses, and vegetables helps guarantee that your guests won't be drinking on an empty
stomach. Eating food later, especially starchy or salty foods, does not help absorb alcohol or
reduce its effects.
- Save money by serving soda from carbon dioxide (CO2) dispensing system. Check your local
bottling company for details.
- Always have designated drivers standing by to safely transport inebriated guests.

DELTA THETA CHAPTER NEW MEMBER SYLLABUS
FOREWORD
NEW MEMBER SYLLABUS
This New Member Syllabus is designed to assist you, the
pledge of Delta Theta Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity.
It is hoped that this work will be improved each year,
and that this improvement will aid in the building
of the strongest chapter of any fraternity
at Kansas State University and in the United States.
It is further hoped that these lessons will be learned
thoroughly and sincerely so that they may be applied
to the practices of all pledges and actives of Alpha Tau Omega
in an effort to strive for the ideals and principles that
our Founders set forth for us to achieve.
Study hard, work cheerfully, make great grades and help make
Delta Theta a truly great chapter in Alpha Tau Omega.
But most importantly, let us help you to help yourself
become a truly great success.
