lpha Iota has been working diligently this
semester to better the chapter as a whole by
improving the scholarship program, expanding
philanthropy and service, and enhancing
recruitment. By focusing attention on these
areas Sigma Pi at Missouri S&T will be the best
fraternity on campus.
The chapter's academic performance slid from
the top five fraternities last semester with a
cumulative GPA of 2.878. The response was
immediate with a revamped scholarship program
that should see results at the end of this spring,
putting Sigma Pi back on top.
The chapter continues to prioritize service and
philanthropy. The biannual ACE project was
expanded from a single day to a full week of
events dedicated to giving back to Missouri
S&T. Alpha Iota regularly visited a local
assisted-living facility to help with cleaning and
maintenance, and members also aided the Rolla
elementary school with upkeep of their outdoor
classroom.
Sigma Pi exceeded the goal of recruiting
13 members for the year by focusing on
improvements to the recruitment process, like
increasing recruitment events and emphasizing
values-based recruitment. With this new focus
on recruitment, the chapter is confident that
membership will continue to rise and be back
above 50 members in just a few short years.
With the conclusion of the 106th annual Best
Ever St. Pat's, Alpha Iota would like to thank
those alumni who visited the chapter and helped
celebrate the holiday.
Fraternally,
