Dear Alumni, Allow me to preface this letter by graciously thanking everyone who contributed to refurbish the chapter room, porch, and first floor of the house.

Letter from the Alumni Recorder When I accepted the position of Alumni Recorder for the chapter, I had two primary goals: I wanted to revamp the website and expand the Brotherhood newsletter. The website, while informative, offered very little reason to habitually visit it. Sean Roesch, the former Historian, and I created a photo gallery […]

Looking through the fraternity scrapbooks and listening […]
