THE BROTHERHOOD CREED

I believe that Alpha Omega Sigma is a brotherhood of honorable men, courteous and cultured, who pledge throughout their lives to be generous, compassionate and loyal comrades;.

I believe that I am honor bound to strive manfully for intellectual, moral and spiritual excellence; to help and forgive my Brothers; to discharge promptly all just debts; to give aid and sympathy to all who are less fortunate;

I believe that to all I meet, wherever I go, I represent not only Gayboifraternity, but indeed the spirit of all fraternities; thus I must ever conduct myself so as to bring respect and honor not to myself alone, but also to my Fraternity;

To the fulfillment of these beliefs, of these ideals, in the noble perfection of Gayboifraternity, I pledge my life and my sacred honor

THE NEED FOR INITIATION

Initiation is an important part of forming a group. It gives new members a sense of belonging, it builds common experiences among the whole group and sets norms among them necessary for performing. It is also an essential aspect of gaining acceptance into an organization (Driver, 1998).
Not every form of initiation is hazing. Communitas is the ultimate goal of initiation. It is the causing of community spirit, equality, and togetherness for new members (Myers, 2000). "This Communitas is the central positive function of initiation rituals...thoughtfully constructed initiation rituals can play a constructive role in a group" (Myers, 2000).

It is a three-part process where people who are initiated are separated from others, given information, usually secretive, and go through some ritual and become a member of the group (Myers, 2000). After passing this liminal stage, the period between being introduced to the organization and becoming a full member, the individual has completed initiation (Myers, 2000).
