Rush

The Best of the Best.

Brotherhood & Respect

Rush Values

The first pillar of brotherhood at Chi Psi is respect for each other – you cannot have brotherhood without respect. All individuals in Chi Psi – actives and pledges – are treated equally. Interaction between every member, senior to freshman, is respectful, sincere, and honest with one another.

Best of the Best

Rush Values

Chi Psi enjoys a membership of around sixty making it neither too large nor too small. Comparably it is a medium sized Fraternity in the UW Greek system. We focus on quality rather than quantity and strongly believe that 60 members is the ideal number for every member to develop strong life-long friendships across multiple pledge classes.

Rush Values

There is absolutely no hazing at Chi Psi. You cannot respect someone who has hazed you. An often sited excuse for hazing is that it bonds a pledge class together. At Chi Psi, we build bonds across the entire membership. One exemplary aspect of Chi Psi is the large number of brothers who have close friendships across multiple pledge classes. This is one of our greatest strengths and is completely antithetical to hazing.

Rush Values

In 1986, Chi Psi established a first at the University of Washington – dry rush. We serve no alcohol at our rush events and we have rigorously enforced this policy every year since 1986.

We believe choosing your fraternity is the second most important decision of your collegiate life (attending the University of Washington of course being the most important). Your judgment in this decision should not be impaired at any point by alcohol.

When you attend a Chi Psi rush event, we will take the time to get to know you and to honestly portray life at Chi Psi. We expect the same of you – that you will take the time to get to know us and to honestly portray yourself.

Chi Psi has proven for over two decades that we do not need to serve alcohol to recruit the finest pledge class on campus. We take the time to truly come to know you and we ask the same of you.
