Page 3 Beta Sigma Psi T he past year has been a remarkable one for our Chapter, marked by growth, achievement, and deeper community engagement. One of our proudest accomplishments was the successful induction of 20 members during the 2024-25 academic year. These individuals bring diverse talents, fresh perspectives, and a strong sense of purpose. We are confident they will continue to uphold and strengthen the values of our brotherhood in the years ahead. Our academic support initiatives saw great success this year. With the introduction of regular peer tutoring sessions, structured study tables, and a formal academic outreach program launched this spring, we've laid a stronger foundation for academic achievement. These efforts are already showing positive results, and we anticipate a steady rise in our Chapter's GPA. Special recognition goes to Academic Chairman Aidan Daly '24 for his leadership, organization, and unwavering commitment to academic excellence. His dedication has helped implement consistent accountability and support systems for members across all class years. Philanthropy and service remain central to our mission. This year, we significantly expanded our outreach to local Lutheran churches, where members regularly volunteered through community meal programs, youth mentorship, and church events. These partnerships have not only strengthened our Chapter's spiritual ties but also reinforced our identity as servant leaders. As our Chapter continues to grow, we are proud to report a steady increase in both volunteer hours and philanthropic contributions. While much of our focus this year has been on internal development and service, we've also made meaningful strides in community and campus involvement. Many of our brothers have taken on leadership roles in student organizations and campus events, further demonstrating our dedication to active, value- driven leadership. Overall, this year has been defined by intentional growth, renewed purpose, and a recommitment to our founding values. As we look ahead to the 2025-26 academic year, we remain focused on expanding our outreach, strengthening academic initiatives, and cultivating a culture rooted in the three S's: spiritual, scholastic, and social.
