The congress established that the ideals of the CIPR were: “To recognize brotherhood amongst men with the aim of achieving mutual understanding, tolerance and respect; to put into practice the ideals of brotherhood and selfless friendship, thus eliminating the barriers of harm between men; to promote the development of moral values and the ideal of service in man”.

History
In November 1957, representatives of the fraternities Phi Eta Mu, Phi Sigma Alpha, and Nu Sigma Beta met at the latter's clubhouse in Cupey Alto, Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico to found a Greek letter umbrella organization.[1] That meeting created Concilio Interfraternitario de Puerto Rico.

Ideals and Objectives
On August 29 and 30 of 1958, a congress was held with activities in the headquarters of all three organizations in San Juan, Puerto Rico.[3]
The congress established that the ideals of the CIPR were: “To recognize brotherhood amongst men with the aim of achieving mutual understanding, tolerance and respect; to put into practice the ideals of brotherhood and selfless friendship, thus eliminating the barriers of harm between men; to promote the development of moral values and the ideal of service in man”. The objectives for the organization were established in the congress to be: To foster cooperation, understanding and identification among the fraternities of university origin so that the ideal of fraternity is extended to a more encompassing field. To channel the activities of the fraternities that make up the council in a common effort aimed at carrying out civic, cultural, social and sports efforts that will benefit the community. To establish uniformity in the regulations of the fraternities that make up this council, in matters of pledges and initiation practices, as well as other aspects in which this would be of common benefit to all fraternities.
