Who we are and what we do:
Welcome to the Purdue Chapter of Acacia Fraternity. Acacia prides itself on developing leaders, high academic achievement, Human Service, and strong brotherhood. The values of Truth, Morality, and Wisdom in all things are pillars upon which the network of Acacia chapters across the country stand on. We strive each and every day to communicate these values to others on not only the Purdue Campus but in the surrounding community. Our beautiful chapter house, located at 608 Waldron Street, is the home to our fraternity. Inside you will find many brothers hard at work, bettering themselves academically, enjoying social life, developing lifelong friendships, and living our Ritual. We are a short walk away from campus, as well as Mackey Arena and Ross-Ade Stadium.
Members of our chapter are highly involved outside of the chapter house. We have members in leadership roles within the Interfraternity Council, within our Acacia Fraternity's International Council, Boiler Gold Rush, intercolleigiate athletics, and a diverse collection of academic and special interest clubs. Our members are also volunteers with the local community and the Purdue Greek community.
Recruitment!
At Purdue, fraternity recruitment is informal. This means that many chapters hold recruitment events throughout the fall semester, and any candidate can visit any chapter he chooses. Please visit our Recruitment page for more information on going Greek and joining Acacia. However, membership development does not stop upon initiation. Acacia recently implemented a new membership development program internationally called Cornerstones. This program emphasizes developing Acacians into well-rounded individuals.
Please note: While the official IFC recruitment period comes in the beginning of both the fall and spring semesters, any potential new members are welcome to the chapter house at any time.
