"Fraternity and Sorority Community (FSC) standards programs have been a practice of campus administrators seeking to change fraternity (and sorority) culture for over three decades (Mamarchev, Sina, & Heida, 2003; Norman, 2003; Sasso, 2012; Schoper, 2009). These programs have been so much of a part of efforts by administrators, notably those responsible for fraternity/sorority advising programs (FSAP), that guiding documents such as the Council for the Advancement of Standards (CAS) FSAP Standards included content relative to the implementation of these types of programs as recommended practice for FSAP operations (CAS, 2015; Mamarchev, Sina, & Heida, 2003).
