T
he Beta-Chi undergraduates continue to excel in every facet of fraternal life.
The spring 2014 semester has brought us great achievement in all four pillars of
scholarship, leadership, fellowship, and service.
sCHoLARsHiP
Last semester Beta-Chi achieved an impressive 3.156 Chapter G.P.A., which was
above the all-student, all-Greek, and all-men's averages. Along with that, our freshman
class had the highest G.P.A. out of any new member class on campus.
RECRuiTMENT
In an attempt to beat the competition, Beta-Chi has taken a new continuous recruitment
standpoint to ensure we get the best guys no matter when or where. We had a fall
pledge class of 20, winter pledge class of three, and spring pledge class of five.
CAMPus EvENTs
On campus we continue to experience great success. In the fall, Beta-Chi took back
first place in the 51st Annual Greek Week. We then followed that up with a first place
finish in Greek Sing. More recently, we secured first place in the 106th Annual Best
Ever St. Pat's.
LEAdERsHiP
On campus, members of Beta-Chi hold many leadership positions in various
organizations. Some of the most notable being Tom dell'orco '11, president of IFC;
stephen Ludwig '11, president of St. Pat's; Joshua Grobe '10, president of Fraternal
Order of Leaders; and Jeff Fritzmeyer '10, of Intramural Managers Association.
I could not be more pleased with the successful direction the Chapter is headed in. We
thank all of our dedicated alumni for their continued support and look forward to many
more years of success to come.

T
he 106th Annual Best Ever St. Pat's was once again a chance for Beta-Chi to be number one second to none. The week started off with court
elections where Brother steve Ludwig '11 was elected to the position of St. Pat. Following that the freshman class put in some hard work
and secured 110 snake heads during snake invasion. We continued to pick up points here and there throughout follies and gonzo games. The week
ended with cudgel and float judging, which we took first and second, respectively, and secured first place overall.
