Regional Conference Etiquette:

Please remember that you are representing the ideals of our Grand Fraternity as well as your Brothers, College of Pharmacy, and fellow students back home.

• Treat the hotel as if it were your own home. Noise that wakes others is unacceptable.
• The leadership of the Fraternity will not tolerate violations of laws or Fraternity Policy, including the Risk Management Policy.
• Please wear your name badge to each event.
• When greeting Brothers whom you do not know, introduce yourself and be courteous and friendly as you would to any new acquaintance, as we all wish to build new bonds of Brotherhood. Due to the nature of our Brotherhood and our basis in Pharmacy, you probably already know more about the new Brothers you meet than you think!
