Page 2 O hio Theta Chapter had a strong and impactful spring semester marked by continued momentum in leadership, academics, philanthropy, and campus involvement. With a shared sense of purpose and brotherhood, our chapter pushed forward on all fronts and laid the foundation for an even stronger year ahead. SERVICE AND LEADERSHIP Philanthropy has been a major focus. Through a packed week of fundraising and fun known as Philanthrofest, we raised approximately $3,600 to support an upcoming service trip to Lima, Peru. Events included Poker Night, Cookie Bash, and the always popular Carnival Night, which featured a dunk tank, popcorn machine, and whipped- cream pie throws. The week concluded with our Brother Pageant, where sororities bid on brother representatives who performed skits ranging from magic shows to dance routines. The entire week saw outstanding brother participation and strong support from the Panhellenic community. Our chapter also received several awards in recognition of leadership and programming. Brother Riley Lohman '25 was honored by FSL with the Cooperative Education Leader award for his efforts in promoting career development within the chapter. Brother Jacob Schulte '25 was also named SigEp Outstanding Senior, a well- deserved recognition for his lasting impact and leadership. In addition, the chapter earned from SigEp the National Excelsior Award for Recruitment, the University Partner Award, the Membership Development Award, and the Volunteer Engagement Excelsior Award. On the academic front, we continued to improve our chapter GPA for the third-consecutive semester. This spring, nine brothers earned a perfect 4.0 and were recognized for their academic excellence and commitment to the Balanced Man Ideal. CAMPUS ACTIVITY Ohio Theta brothers remained highly active. Several members were tapped into honor societies and campus leadership groups, including Sigma Sigma, Phi Rho Chi, and multiple others. Brothers also contributed through their involvement in SAC and other student organizations, representing SigEp proudly throughout the university community. BONDING AS BROTHERS We came together through events like Queen of Hearts, Carlson Leadership Academy, and Parents Weekend. We welcomed 29 members during our spring recruitment, adding a strong class of men who are already contributing to the chapter's energy and involvement. Each event brought new momentum and strengthened our connections as a chapter. As we look ahead, we're excited to continue building on this momentum—both as brothers and as leaders in the community. Fraternally, Matthew Azzarello '26 Alumni Operations Director Ohio Theta's 2025 executive board is joined by our 2025 Queen of Hearts, Ellie Miller of Chi Omega. The group is celebrating Ellie's win outside the SigEp house, proudly posing with the iconic Red Bull car. Ohio Theta brothers represent the chapter at Carlson Leadership Academy, where we took home the Membership Development Award. This was a great opportunity for our executive board and rising leaders to improve on what it means to be a SigEp.
