Resistance Through Praxis: Engaging Fraternity/Sorority Members in Intentional Inclusion Practices
Abstract
Each year students attending higher education institutions, which recognize fraternity and sorority chapters, can choose to engage in the process as part of their involvement on campus. However, their participation is often reliant on chapter practices which may traditionally be rooted in exclusion. The struggle to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusivity practices within these organizations has become evident given the changing tides of our institutional climate. This chapter will address the process taken at California State University, Fullerton's Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL) area to bridge the gap of developing both inclusive conversations and environments for Historically White Fraternal Organizations (HWFO) on campus. Consequently, this chapter aims to demonstrate how change and resistance to the dominant narrative can be accomplished through implementation of intentional, thought-provoking rhetoric, curriculum, and conversation to change the perspective of students and how they can act as agents of change to create inclusive environments.
