Gamma Psi Earns ThrEE awards
aT LEadErshiP ConfErEnCE
Actives Welcome Nine New Members
i
am pleased to share with you the success Gamma Psi has had this spring. We welcomed
nine new members and they are developing into Men of Principle under the leadership of
Vice President of Member Education Joe rusek '16. They are leaders on campus and in the
community, and I look forward to watching them develop in Beta.
Bob Cantrell '62, Paul Pfeiffer
'64, rich Patterson '65, tom
Chouinard '91, and our executive
board attended the Keystone
Leadership Conference in Itasca,
Illinois. We attended seminars
that taught us how to manage and
operate the chapter, how to deal
with issues, and management
techniques for everyday life. The
Gamma Psi colony was recognized
with awards in Excellence in Self-
Governance, Outstanding Housing
Corporation, and Outstanding
University Fraternity Advisor. No
other chapter or colony at the event
was honored with three awards,
so thank you to everyone who has
helped establish Gamma Psi as a
leader.
This summer, alumni and members look forward to regaining our charter status at the 175th
convention August 7-10, in Oxford, Ohio.
We have come a long way and I am excited to see what the future will bring for Gamma Psi. I
encourage any alumni in the area to visit and see the success of the colony firsthand.
Fraternally,
mitch Cavanaugh '15

a large transportation company located in
Ann Arbor, Michigan. "Being a Beta helped
build character, my sense of teamwork,
communication skills, and other traits,
which have allowed me to be successful
both personally and professionally."
From his success, Gary shares his
advice for members beginning their job
search. "First and foremost: be yourself.
Figure out what YOU want to do through
internships, interviews, webinars, and
conversations with family, friends, and
faculty. Do your homework on the position
you are interested in, the company and
the associated industry. Most importantly,
when ready, let them know you want the
position."
Since graduating, Gary has stayed in touch
with several of the members from MSU.
Through the friendships he made and the
skills the chapter taught him, Gary looks
forward to seeing the colony grow and
succeed at Michigan State.
Gary and his wife, Lisa, have two children
and live in Plymouth, Michigan. E-mail:
