Polaris: the Administrative Guide of the Tau Delta Phi Fraternity Mr Shawn Michael Dowiak

Publisher Marketing: Polaris, the Administrative Guide of the Tau Delta Phi Fraternity, enters its fourth edition. This book is much more than a "how to" on successfully running or building a chapter of Tau Delta Phi Fraternity. It is a story. It is the story of an originally Jewish Fraternity that became the first international fraternity to take down the color line in 1945. From its inception, Tau Delta Phi has demonstrated its progressive place in the fraternity movement. Its exceptional direction leads Tau Delta Phi to be a fraternity of firsts, the first to end fraternal segregation, the first modest sized fraternity to remove pledging and operate under a developmental training model for all members, and one of the first organizations to be accepting of men based solely on the content of their character, not the color of their skin, the way they choose to worship or not worship God, the country their family comes from, or even who they choose to fall in love with. Besides the story of an extraordinary fraternity, this book is also the story of the fraternity movement, a movement that Tau Delta Phi is proud to be a member of. Enter, and read about Tau Delta Phi's dynamic purpose and how it changes the lives of men forever.
