Chapter History

Early Years

The Alpha Epsilon Chapter was one of several expansion efforts during the late 1980s. Despite the presence of two long standing organizations (Abbe Society and Friars Society) with similar ideals on campus, Phi Sigma Pi developed its own niche and soon rivaled other campus organizations in size and familiarity. Much of the success was due to the dedication of the Founding members and the Chapter's Advisor, Dr. Melissa Cichowicz (nee Betz).

The Active Chapter

The current chapter has over 30 members. The past few pledge classes have helped the chapter grow in numbers including the Fall 08 pledge class, Alpha Rho, which had 18 initiates pinned.

Chapter Mascot

Alpha Epsilon's chapter mascot is the sea turtle.
