Each member is encouraged to participate fully in the technical society in his field, and as fully as his abilities and academic load will permit in athletics, engineering or university student government, and other worthwhile campus activities. Because of the Fraternity s professional orientation, commuter students, graduate and married students, as well as single undergraduates, all find membership valuable. Rushing is an open invitation for eligible students to start the process of becoming a member of Theta Tau. It allows the potential pledge to meet the members and learn what the fraternity is about. During Rush students are explained what is involved in the pledging process.
Rush begins near the beginning of each semester and last about two weeks.
By signing up the student is showing they are interested in the fraternity and would like more information. At the end of the rush period, the members of Theta Tau vote on perspective pledges. See our Calendar for Rush events. It is a time for all the active members of Theta Tau to get to know the students that are pledging and for the students to get to know the members of the fraternity and the background of Theta Tau at large. Throughout the pledge period, different requirements are asked of the pledges.
