Event overview
The National Convention is Theta Chi’s largest and most important gathering of undergraduates and alumni. Although the primary function of Convention is to conduct official Fraternity business, it is also a time for alumni and undergraduates to reunite and celebrate the Fraternity’s accomplishments.

The School of Fraternity Practices (SFP) is a leadership and chapter operations school held in conjunction with the National Convention. The curriculum at SFP is intensive and covers a wide array of topics related to chapter leadership, operations and recruitment.

Who’s going?
The National Convention plays host to Theta Chi alumni, undergraduates and other friends of the Fraternity. It is the Fraternity’s largest gathering of brothers. Additionally, all active chapters are required to send one undergraduate delegate to vote in the business portion of the Convention. Alumnus delegates are also strongly encouraged to attend.

What to expect
During the business portions of the Convention, delegates will discuss and vote on:
  • Fraternity resolutions
  • Elections to the Grand Chapter
  • Amendments to The Constitution and Bylaws of Theta Chi Fraternity
The School of Fraternity Practices (SFP) is a series of small group discussions and keynote presentations from prominent Theta Chi alumni and other Greek life speakers.
