BETA Creed
As a member of the Beta Club and as a citizen of my community, state, and nation I believe in and shall strive to promote the principles of:
Honesty: knowing that honesty is necessary to the formation of good character, and that the principles of honesty dictate that I not only refrain from acts of dishonesty; but that I perform my duties fully and take advantage of the opportunities afforded me by my circumstances.
Justice: believing that it is only right and proper that I should be just and fair in my dealings with my fellowman; that I should condemn no one without giving him a chance to defend himself; and that I should consider all factors before forming an opinion of another’s motives, or before passing judgment upon his actions.
Service: being convinced that the rendering of helpful service to my fellowman is a duty and privilege conferred upon me by my forbears and by my environment, and that I can attain lasting satisfaction only by rendering such service to the best of my ability.
Cooperation: knowing that I must work closely and in a friendly manner with others in this day of highly `organized social and economic endeavor; and that I must respect authority and strive at all times to be dependable – if I am to be of greatest helpfulness to society.
Responsibility: believing that full happiness is possible only through full acceptance of responsibility for my actions and for preserving and passing my rich inheritance on to coming generations.
Industriousness: being aware of the fact that – if I am to be a factor for progress in my community and a real help to my associates – my mind must be alert to understand and my hands ready to perform promptly and fully the tasks that come my way.
