Property Documents Scanned and Uploaded

We recently scanned and collated all of Jay Webb’s documents dating back to the 1980s. This is a similar effort to what we did with Jim Ljunglin’s files last year. They are posted online at brothers.pizetes.org. The Property folder was completely reorganized as part of this effort. Let us know if things are not intuitive or if you have any suggestions for improvement.

WPI LTI Recap

A bunch of Pi Zetes and pledges went to WPI this weekend to IHQ's Regional Leadership Training Institute. Here's a short recap from Daniel Bruce, one of the pledges: Over the weekend, a group of brothers and pledges from the Pi Chapter traveled to their Pi Tau counterparts' house at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts. They attended one of many annual Leadership Training Institute programs put on by Zeta Psi IHQ. After meeting brothers from the Pi Tau, Nu Delta (Marist), and Rho Alpha (MIT) chapters, the entire group split into smaller sections to attend two of six workshops. Among topics learned were identifying and correcting fringe membership and creating and managing house budgets. One of the topics, risk management, was spoken about after informing the group that, out of all industries, fraternities were the fourth most costly to insure; so much so that Zeta Psi has partnered with over 30 other fraternities to create their own insurance group. Lastly, the brothers and pledges from the Pi Chapter would like to say "thank you" to the brothers at the Pi Tau chapter for hosting this LTI.

A Word from a Pledge

The first pledge meeting for the Fall 2012 pledge class occurred last night. Here's a note from Nathan McCarthy, one of our pledges: The pledge meeting really made me feel like a member of the house. After participating in the house meeting and being inducted as a pledge, I'm proud to wear the Zeta Psi pin. I'm looking forward to the pledging process and am excited to contribute to the house.
