Contents
Before the Fraternity
Andrew was raised around Richmond, VA, and began at VCU in Fall 2005 as a Computer Science student. He considered minors in Business and French upon entering, and sought out student organizations and groups of people on campus that meshed well with his interests. This led him to pursue membership in his second semester with the VCU Chapters of Theta Tau Professional Engineering Fraternity and Phi Sigma Pi. He was part of the Pi Initiate Class of Spring 2006, and was inducted at the conclusion of the Spring 2006 semester.
During Active Membership

Later he was elected to Parliamentarian for the 2008-2009 academic year, serving also as ex officio Chapter Standards and Risk Management chair, until graduation in May 2009.
