T
he year is starting off well for Beta Phi. We overcame a few small obstacles with the Chapter
House to start the year, but the brothers have pushed through.
Recruitment on the Rise
Our recruitment committee set a goal of 40 scholars, leaders, athletes, and gentleman to be part of
the fall 2015 class, which would far exceed our overall membership goal as a Chapter.
Pike Makes Huge Academic Strides
Academics increased for the third semester in a row. We had more members on the Dean's List
and academic excellence then we have had in the last 10 years. Congratulations, brothers, on this
achievement!
Focus on Fall Philanthropy
We have set a goal to raise a minimum of $5,000 this fall at our Pike Fireman's Challenge. This year
for the challenge, we sent out letters to local companies in the greater Lafayette area asking for a $500
donation in return for their logo featured on the back of our t-shirts. Hopefully with enough money
we'll give each contestant from the
sororities a free t-shirt, which would
not only benefit the companies, but
allow us to promote Pike on campus.
Beta Phi looks forward to another
great semester and all that it has to
offer. If you're on campus this fall,
please stop by the house. We love to
connect with our alumni!

PIKE CONTINUES UPWARD MOMENTUM
Academics and Recruitment on the Rise for Beta Phi

Fisher '17 interned with GE Aviation this
summer and took the day off to volunteer
at Stepping Stones Summer Camp.
Beta Phi won the spring intramural
dodgeball championship, defeating
former champions, Sigma Chi.
Beta Phi's first recruitment event this summer
had more than 140 potential new members in

to start the semester.
