Phi Kappa Tau Has a Good Samaritan Policy
...which means that if you see someone who is in danger, you should help them. The applies for you, as our brothers look out for each other, and others around campus and in the community. We believe that it’s never really wrong to do the right thing.
The Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity has two Good Samaritan policies:
For individual members and guests
For the chapter itself
Adopted on December 11, 2018, by the Fraternity’s National Council
1. For Individual Members and Guests
If a member assists another person, or himself, in obtaining immediate and appropriate medical care related to the use or consumption of alcohol, other drugs, or to another medical emergency, then that member, as well as those who are assisted, will not be subject to individual disciplinary action with respect to the incident. This is the case even if the member who is assisting was a contributing factor to that emergency. An individual may benefit from this policy more than once, though repeated use of the policy may receive stricter scrutiny.
2. For The Chapter Itself
A chapter that seeks immediate and appropriate medical assistance for a person in need related to the use or consumption of alcohol, other drugs, or to another medical emergency, may be eligible for mitigation of charges related to violations of organizational policies. To be eligible for this potential mitigation, the chapter will be required to meet in person or by phone with a national staff member or an alumni volunteer designated by the fraternity. A chapter may benefit from this policy more than once, though repeated use of the policy may receive stricter scrutiny.
