Mike Holzer (born 8 June 1982) is an Alumni Member of Eta Chapter () at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP)

Early Fraternity Life and Career

Mike decided to go to IUP originally because he wanted to pursue a music degree. Shortly after his first semester, he wanted to do something with a greater chance of finding a job immediately after school. Mike switched to MIS shortly thereafter on advice from his girlfriend at the time. After Mike and said girlfriend broke up in the spring of 2002, Mike decided he needed to find a group to spend his time with, since his social circle had been halved.

Mike received a letter in the mail advertising Phi Sigma Pi Rush and thought it sounded like an interesting group. When he went to the informational meeting outside the HUB he was sold.

Mike was inducted into the Alpha Beta (Gladiators) class in the Fish family.

Collegiate Years at Eta Chapter

After Mike was inducted as a brother, he helped with the fund raising committee for two semesters with his grandbig, Lee Zarnick and Kelly Lange. While on the fund raising committee, the fraternity ran a very successful homecoming shirt sale.

For Spring '04, Mike was elected to be an Initiate Advisor along with Andrea Barner. The two of them, along with Laura Huss traveled to the '03 National Convention in North Carolina. Mike and Andrea initiated a 23 member class, more than doubling the active brotherhood.

Alumni Years to Present

National Involvement

  • National Convention 2004

Bigs and Littles

Mike's Big Brother is Grace (Bielchick) Shellenbarger , who is studying for her PHD at IUP. She taught Mike a lot about the National Fraternity and many other lessons, perhaps the most important of which is that it is ok to go against what everyone else is doing-- you don't always have to follow the crowd to fit in. And that camo is actually a color.

Mike has 1 Little Brother:

  • Anna Baughman, Alumnus
