Alpha Gamma Rho - Penn State University

2 Gamma Crescent On Saturday, February 26, brothers of Alpha Gamma Rho decided to take a picture amidst celebrating State Patty's. The brotherhood event consisted of games, music, and good times. The spring 2021 pledge class regroups on the steps of Alpha Gamma Rho on April 10, 2022. It has been about a year since these fine gentlemen have been inducted into Alpha Gamma Rho. Happy anniversary, boys! Noble Ruler Tyler Giese '21 (Γ1878) tyler.c.giese.2002@gmail.com I am a sophomore from Thousand Oaks, Calif., majoring in mechanical engineering. My time as Noble Ruler so far has been enlightening, and I'm very satisfied with the work my fellow executive members and I have put in so far. We have a great class of new members whom I expect will add a lot to the culture of Alpha Gamma Rho. I look forward to the next semester of leading this organization and ending on a high note. VNR Membership Development Sean Clark '21 (Γ1875) seandclark35@gmail.com I am a junior from Haverford, Pa., majoring in supply chain management with a minor in Spanish. I ran for this position due to the rich traditions that this house has instilled upon me and the other, previously initiated brothers. We were very lucky to have a big class of 22 new members for this spring semester, thanks to Aidan O'Leary '21 (Γ1884). These past few weeks have been spent teaching the new members about the traditions and information surrounding this great fraternity. Everything has been going well this semester, and I cannot wait to see what these new men bring to the future of this house. VNR Finance Chris Deitrich '21 (Γ1876) chris13@ptd.net I'm a sophomore from Allentown, Pa., pursuing a bachelor's degree in finance and minor in psychology. I became interested in VNR finance during my first semester as a brother last fall. I believed it to be an essential aspect of our chapter's success, and I personally wanted to gain a better understanding of my own financial commitments to the chapter. I've gained an intimate understanding of our chapter's needs from a financial perspective, and I have tried to implement thrifty, ethical financial practices to the best of my ability. I've enjoyed budgeting for the semester; discussing details of our finances with my executive board, active undergraduate brothers, and our Gamma alumni board; and trying my best to ensure everyone enjoys their time with us as much as possible. Next semester, I look forward to finding new and more efficient ways to fund our chapter and, of course, enjoying my first semester living in Gamma Chapter's house. VNR Activities Sam Pedone '21 (Γ1886) sam235ped@gmail.com I am a sophomore from Holden, Mass., studying accounting. I chose to run for this position because I wanted to improve the house and support its growth. When I joined this house, I felt that there were lots of areas that could be improved. As an executive board, I believe we have done just that. Organizing events and activities for the house has been a great experience, to say the least. I have enjoyed collaborating with my fellow executive board members and other brothers when it comes to planning. I have also enjoyed meeting and coordinating with the school when it comes to the rules and regulations of these events. It is always important that we follow all their established regulations for the betterment of our organization. Next semester, I look forward to continuing this role and further improving the house so it is in good standing for future classes. VNR Maintenance and Operations David Lukac '21 (Γ1880) dlukac22@gmail.com I am currently a sophomore and am still in the division of undergraduate studies, but I intend on studying civil engineering. I am from Pittsburgh, Pa., about 10 minutes north of downtown North Hills. Being involved in the house and making the most of the time here is something very important to me, and that is why I decided to run for an executive position. My Big held the position before me, so I decided to take it on myself. It is a very time-consuming position that is difficult to balance with school at times, but I am very happy I took it. Brothers in the house have been helpful, and so have past VNR maintenance and operations who are still actives. We were blessed with a beautiful house both inside and out, and I am proud to be able to keep it that way as best as possible. I am looking forward to finishing this semester strong and having a great second half of my executive term in the fall. Executive
