Chapter History

Founding

Gamma Beta Chapter was chartered on October 29th, 1995 at Morehead State University. The original class contained 33 members. Since then the chapter has grown and at present contains 29 active members. The Alpha Kappa Class currently has 18 initiate members which will bring the chapter up to 48 active brothers. This semester the chapter had a big week long push for our Philanthropy Teach for America.

Early Years

Gamma Beta started very strong in its early years. The chapter at one time was above 60 members. After a period of low recruitment and graduations, the chapter at one time dwindled down to a membership in the low 20's. Under the leadership of chapter President Amanda Earnest and Jesse Howard, Gamma Beta quickly returned to being a successful chapter. The recruitment of Chi and Psi classes brought in 25 new brothers and has speared the chapter into the current recruitment powerhouse.

Chapter Chant:

Listen up so you can hear,
Morehead Gamma Beta's cheer!
Other Chapters can't deny,
We're the best of Phi Sigma Pi!
PSP as good as gold,
Morehead shows it three times fold!
We're all Brothers, tight as glue,
We're Gamma Beta, M! S! U!
