During the first week of August, 8 of our brothers and 3 alumni travelled to Washington DC to attend our fraternity's 71st national conference - Grand Council! The Beta Chi Chapter is proud to announce that we placed in the top 10 out of all chapters in the nation for the Emory W. Thurston Grand President's Award - for the 4th year in a row!
Another proud moment for the Beta Chi Chapter is that our own Ralph Reyes was elected as Phi Delta Chi's Grand Vice President of Student Affairs! We cannot wait to see what work he accomplishes in the upcoming two years!! Congrats Ralph!
We had a great time learning more about the fraternity, strengthening our leadership skills, and meeting brothers from across the nation!! #PDCgc2017
"I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to attend Grand Council this year. I had the chance to learn more about the fraternity and meet and hang out with Brothers from other chapters. It was great to be able to talk to other Brothers about what their Chapter does and use these ideas to help Beta Chi grow. Conversely, as one of the higher ranked Chapters in the nation, Beta Chi had the opportunity to help out a lot of the newer Chapters to give them advice on how to improve and get Brothers more involved. I enjoyed gaining a better understanding of the issues facing our fraternity and how we will solve them both on the national and local levels. I plan on using what I learned at Grand Council to help improve our chapter."
