Freedom Family

From PhiSigmaPiWiki

The Gamma Pi Chapter Freedom Family, is a segment of the Gamma Pi chapter who formed with the merging of three family lines.


Family History

The Freedom Family was formed on the Light Rail in the Fall of 2013. At the time, the DTF Family and the Flame Family both only had two members each, and the Fish Family was very small. They decided to merge lines to combat the fact that the other families in Gamma Pi were so large.

The Freedom Family was named in honor of the Founding Fathers of this great country. Just like the Thirteen Colonies before them, these six brothers broke away from their lines to form a new family. The mascot of the Freedom Family is John Hancock.

Family Letters: It took the Freedom Family many weeks to decide on their letters. In the end they decided on navy blue t-shirt, white primary letters on red background letters. These colors represent the true yankee nature of the Freedom Family.

Family Food: The Freedom Family enjoys fro-yo.

Family Song: Party in the U.S.A. by Miley Cyrus
