The object of our fraternity is to promote good fellowship, to encourage studiousness, and to inspire its members in seeking the best in their chosen lines of study as well as in life. Progress shall mark our every step; the spirit of congeniality shall reign at all times; and every member shall be honest with himself as with his brothers. Men elected to our membership are considered to be of good moral character, to be high in scholarship, to have the capacity for meeting and making friends, and to give promise of service to their fellowmen and to the world. To be and become such may at times require a sacrifice of time, pleasures and comforts.
Inaugural Leadership Institute a Success!
More than 180 FarmHouse chapter officers, alumni and friends convened in Kansas City January 5-8, 2012, for the inaugural FarmHouse Leadership Institute. FLI represented a significant evolution of the program formerly known as FarmHouse Leadership Academy, as the curriculum helped each participant develop his values-based leadership style.
FarmHouse alumnus and professional speaker Rick Barnes (TT ’82) and former North-American Interfraternity Conference staff member Ben Pendry (Sigma Chi) led the 4-day Institute. They were joined by FarmHouse alumni and Greek life professionals from across the country in facilitating sessions on leadership, values, Ritual and implementing change within a chapter. Additionally, all were able to enjoy fellowship over Kansas City barbecue, and visit local landmarks such as the Power and Light district and the College Basketball Experience.
A very big thank you to the FarmHouse Foundation and its generous donors for providing the support to make this program possible. Check out the album on the official FarmHouse International Facebook page for more photos from FLI.
