[WEBINAR] Brotherhood, Sisterhood, and the Power of Belonging

Brotherhood, Sisterhood, and the Power of Belonging

 

We all know there's something special about fraternity / sorority, and we have stories or theories to explain why. But do you want to know what the data say? Over the last six years, Dyad Strategies has conducted in-depth research into the psychological roots of fraternal brotherhood and sisterhood. Listen in as CEO Dr. Gentry McCreary helped us understand the ways that fraternity/sorority members experience brother/sisterhood, how our facilities impact engagement, and how to build meaningful brother/sisterhood at the chapter level.
