Contents
Early Fraternity Life and Career
Phired Up's induction, April 1, 2000
Brian decided to attend Millersville University in 1998 after transferring from York College of Pennsylvania and rehabilitating from a head injury caused by a motor vehicle accident in 1996. After making the dean's list every semester since he started at Millersville, he received his invitation to rush Sigma Chapter of Phi Sigma Pi National Honor Fraternity in February of 2000. He felt really good about himself when he received the letter from Sigma. In just a little over 3 years, he had gone from being told he would not make it through the night in the hospital to being inducted into an organization that recruited the best and brightest students at Millersille. Brian was inducted into Sigma Chapter on April 1, 2000. This was the start of a lifelong membership.
Collegiate Years at Sigma Chapter
Brian served as the Phired Up Initiate Class President, Program/PR co-chair, and Recording Secretary during the two years that he was an Active member of Sigma Chapter. In addition, Brian was honored to represent Sigma Chapter as its Grand Chapter delegate in 2002. Brian would like to think he was known in Sigma as someone who could always put a smile on your face and could be counted on to lend a hand where needed. He really enjoyed and participated in the multiple service projects that were sponsored by Sigma Chapter, including cleaning the Meals on Wheels kitchen, serving at a pancake breakfast, and clearing a stretch of road with Adopt a Highway.
