The current alumni advisers live nearby to campus and keep in close contact with the brothers. A weekly alumni newsletter is provided to all active members via chapter list-serv. The Beta Pi chapter changed their constitution in Spring 2008, as we felt it would be in the best interest of our chapter to expand our alumni involvement, and have four alumni advisers instead of two.
