New Hampshire beta Chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon
New Hampshire Beta Thrives
with Alumni Support
Chapter Receives Honorable Mention for Alumni Association of the Year
T
he New Hampshire Beta Chapter continues to grow at the
University of New Hampshire, with each brother supporting
the ideals and values of Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
The chapter is well organized and focused on its goals and
responsibilities and is considered one of the best fraternity chapters
on campus. Our goal has been helped greatly through the constant
effort and input from our alumni base. Alumni efforts have been
recognized at the national level with an honorable mention at the
157th annual Sigma Alpha Epsilon National Convention for Alumni
Association of the Year.
Recently, the chapter hosted its annual Homecoming event and
was thrilled to see the return of many alumni. Chapter founders
Aaron Page ʼ10 and Kyle Gagnon ʼ10 were both in attendance.
The chapter is now looking forward to its next alumni event on
Saturday, December 7. We hope that you will join us for food,
fun, and laughter, and that you will rekindle the bonds of fraternal
brotherhood. You are also welcome to attend the regular alumni
association meetings. The association works closely with the
chapter to ensure its success, both short and long term. In addition
to meeting regularly with brothers, we hope to maintain close
communication through our newsletters and website. I hope you will

reach out to brothers you have not spoken to or seen in a number
of years in order to catch up.
Since re-establishing the chapter, I have been heartened to see
it grow and succeed at the activities that go into making a good
chapter a great chapter. This includes, among other things, a firm
understanding and use of our Ritual, running well-organized chapter
meetings, holding well-organized executive council meetings,
running a well-managed meal program at the chapter house, and
maintaining the chapter house on a daily basis. I am very proud of
all of our active members, as are all the alumni who work with them.
Thank you again, loyal alumni, for your support and encouragement
as we continue to re-establish the New Hampshire Beta Chapter
on the University of New Hampshire campus. Your loyalty to this
organization allows us to thrive.
Fraternally,
