Beta Pi Chapter (Founded November 13, 1994) is located at University of Connecticut in Storrs-Mansfield, Connecticut. The Chapter was founded by Alpha Beta Chapter alumnus Jon Pinto and is a member of the Northeast Region.
Contents
Chapter History
Founding
The Beta Pi chapter was founded by Jon Pinto (AB), with the charter being received at the 1993 National Convention, which took place in Baltimore, hosted by the Alpha Beta Chapter.
Early Years
Assistance from alumni would be appreciated for this section. Please contact our Historian, Rachel Ho (rachel.ho@uconn.edu).
The Active Chapter
The current chapter consists of about 65 members from the Alpha Rho, Alpha Sigma, Alpha Tau, Alpha Upsilon, Alpha Phi, and Alpha Chi Initiate Classes and is very excited to welcome our Alpha Psi class in the Fall of 2018.
The current president of Beta Pi chapter is Christian SantaMaria, who was elected to this position in the December elections. We have a current Executive Board consisting of eleven brothers and an Executive Council (committee chairs) that consists of seven chair positions that cover a range of aspects of our organization all falling under our fraternity's tripod. Our chapter advisor, Dr. John Ayers, serves as a faculty member in the University of Connecticut Department of Mechanical Engineering.
One strong component of our chapter is the Standards Committee, which deals with any issues of Brother conduct and risk management issues. Each semester, a Brother from each grade level, (Sophomore, Junior, Senior) is elected by the Brothers of that class standing. Then, we elect a 'Brother-at-Large' who is a Brother that is elected by the whole Brotherhood (who may also be a Freshman). These Brothers, led by the Parliamentarian, interpret the bylaws and rules of our Chapter and our University and investigate any matters that may be unclear; they keep these matters secret from the Brotherhood until it is necessary/has been fully investigated. The Standards Committee is a definite strength of our chapter.
What's Unique About Our Chapter?
Right now we have a few positions that most other chapters do not have. We have a Historian, and we also have an HR Committee. Our HR committee is charged with the responsibility of strengthening our brotherhood through events, and other means! Our HR Committee's main responsibility is to hold a Brotherhood Retreat once per semester, which is mandatory for all Brothers.
We have four alumni advisors, who have recently graduated from the chapter, who correspond and advise us: May Jean Counsilman, Jen Danowitz, Kim Hansen, and Sarah Papale.
When IS Chapter?
Chapter meets weekly at 7:00 PM, unless otherwise noted in the weekly minutes. E-Board usually meets at 6, and Committees usually meet as part of chapter. Mandatory events are Bid Night, Pinning, Bylaw Night, and Induction, as well as Big/Little Ceremony and Big/Little Dinner if you are a Big.
What Do We Do?
Past events have included:
- Fundraising: Cookoff Challenge, Munson's Chocolate Sale, Magazine Fundraising
- ICR: NERC, AB Maryland Volleyball, Syracuse
- Service: Relay for Life, Making Strides for Breast Cancer, Boys and Girls Club, TFA School Supply Drives
- PR: Greek Week, Lip Sync, Letter Days
ICR Event
Our inter-chapter event this year is most likely going to be the Northeast Regional Conference (NERC). Please contact Samantha Marquardt at pspbetapiicr@gmail.com if you are interested in attending.
About Our Brothers
