alumni.oxepsilon.org CAREER NIGHT Last C term we hosted the first-ever alumni Career Night at the Chapter House. is successful event took place a week before the WPI spring career fair. A Q&A session was first, allowing active Brothers to voice any questions they had to an alumni panel regarding the WPI career fair, job hunting, or even just life after college. After all questions were addressed, alumni spread themselves throughout the first floor to talk one-on-one with Brothers for resume critiquing or to answer some more in depth questions. Our Brothers benefited greatly from this event, and many were able to land internships for the summer. A special thank-you goes out to our alumni in attendance: Greg Gonzalez '12, Joseph Zurkus '99, Matt Dedonato '09, Alan Belniak '97, Joe Gugliemino '83, Jeffrey LaRoche '96, Shawn Ayube '99, Neil Lettenberger '07, Jeffrey Smith '91, and WPI's director of academic advising, Maggie Becker. We look forward to seeing you all at the next Career Night! BOWLING WITH BREWS More than 50 alumni and undergraduates participated in our first-ever bowling event at Bowlero in Shrewsbury, Mass. Brothers teamed up in groups of 5-6 per lane and competed against each other to score the most points for two hours. e provided food and drinks were a nice reprieve from the intense games. After two hours of bowling, the MVP of each team received a small medal in recognition of their talents. Participation for this event was one of the highest we had all year. Bowling was such a hit that we are making it a tradition for years to come; you don't want to miss the next one! USO EPSILON POKER TOURNAMENT is was a joint alumni relations event and a fundraiser for the Chapter's charity. Poker has been one of the most popular events in the past years, to the point that it has become tradition. is year, we raised $600 from the event and donated it to the USO. We started off the night with dinner and drinks for alumni and undergraduates to meet and interact with each other. After dinner, 35 participants made up of both alumni and undergraduates started off the tournament with strong hopes of getting their names written in our winner's plaque. After five hours of intense playing, we finally had our winner! Congratulations to Adam Macsata '16. Stay tuned for our next tournament.
