About the Organization:

TO LIVE in the light of Friendship — to judge our fellows not by their rank nor wealth but by their worth as men — to hold eternally before us the memory of those whom we have loved and lost — to hold forth in the solidarity of our brotherhood the nobility of action which will — make for the preservation of our highest and worthiest aim — and thus be true to the ideal of friendship —

TO WALK in the path of Chivalry — to be honorable to all men and defend that honor — to fulfill our given pledge at all times — to be true to the precepts of knighthood and win the love and care of the women of our dreams — and thus be true to the ideal of chivalry —

TO SERVE for the love of Service — to give unselfishly that which we may have to offer — to do voluntarily that which must be done — to revere God and to strive in His worship at all times — and thus be true to the ideal of service —

TO PRACTICE each day friendship — chivalry — service — thus keeping true to these — the three ideals — of the founders of our fraternity — this is the Creed of Tau Epsilon Phi.
