What is ACACIA?

The Acacia Fraternity is a general internation college social fraternity. In each of the chartered chapters on campuses across the U.S. and Canada, college men greet each other as brothers because, as Acacians, they share a common origin in the obligations and symbolisms of the fraternity.

But, Acacia is unique in that it is the only general national greek fraternity to select an entire greek word rather than a combination of letters for its name.

Acacia is a private organization composed of individuals exercising their constitutional right to free association. Just as no one is required to join Acacia, no one has the right to receive membership. Acacia membership is a privalege that is extended only by invitation of an undergraduate chapter to individuals who the chapter believes will make worthy and compatible additions to its ranks.
