Growing Beta Kappa on Track
A New Era for Beta Kappa,
A Chapter Worth Investing in
Zachary Elkins '22,
Recent Graduate

a minor in creative
technology and design
Zach helped refound Beta
Kappa Chapter in 2018 as an Alpha class
member. He served Fiji as recruitment
chairman, philanthropy chairman, historian,
and resident computer expert. Zach exemplifies
all five values of Phi Gamma Delta, and he
earned a place on the dean's list with a 4.0 GPA.
Mitch Crist '24,
Chapter President
"Having a Chapter House/
common area for brothers
to meet would be essential
for the development of Beta
Kappa as a whole. A common place for brothers
to meet would allow for easier conditions to
have Chapter, an easier time planning important
events, and a great place for us share time and
space as a brotherhood. Perge!"
Scott Miller '25
(son of Bruce Miller '89)
"Having a dedicated house
or common space where
all the brothers can come
together would be amazing.
Between having to rent off-campus meeting
space and meet virtually during COVID, we
have never had the opportunity to see every
brother inside a Fiji location at one time. e
'house' is a consistent theme that we hear
from graduate brothers as they relay stories
of their college days and something that we
crave to experience as we continue to grow
Beta Kappa's legacy."
Points of Pride
During Beta Kappa's first semester back on campus in 2018,
members collectively earned a 3.22 GPA, placing first in academic
achievement among all IFC fraternities. Since then, academics have
remained top of mind.
Since returning to campus, Beta Kappa has emphasized community
service, averaging 12 hours per brother each semester.
