Spring Alumni Ritual and Reception

When: April 18 (Sunday)

Where: William Pitt Union room 548

This spring Sigma Phi Epsilon at the University of Pittsburgh will be hosting an event for our alumni, as part of this year’s 20th anniversary celebrations. Twenty years ago our chapter was recolonized at the University of Pittsburgh, and in honor of that we would like to extend an invitation to all SigEp alumni to come witness our ritual on April 18 at 4:00 P.M. in the William Pitt Union room 548. This will be followed by a short reception and a talk to show our alumni what is going on in the chapter and AVC. Please RSVP to UPittSigEp@gmail.com as soon as possible.

Red Bull Flugtag

Sigma Phi Epsilon at the University of Pittsburgh is currently considering entering a team in this year’s Red Bull Flugtag in Philadelphia. The contest, sponsored by Red Bull, is for teams of five, who put together a homemade flying device. In order to enter the contest you must first pass through an application process.

At tonight’s chapter meeting, representatives from Red Bull will be giving a presentation to the chapter about how to enter. For more information see:

Carlson Leadership Academy

Last night thirteen Brothers of the Pitt chapter attended The Carlson Leadership Academy in Pittsburgh, part of SigEp’s Leadership Continuum. It was a great experience all around, the entire Executive Board attended, as well as many up-and-coming SigEps. The chapter returned home to campus with many great ideas and the inspiration to make them happen. Our Ritual Team was given the honor of performing the Ritual in front of all the initiated brothers at the event. Congratulations to Michael Hoerner on his first time experiencing the Epsilon Rite of Passage.

Our chapter swept the awards for District 7, with Resident Scholar, Chris Gassman winning Volunteer of the Year, and Brother Drew Singer, Editor-in-Chief of The Pitt News chosen as the Zollinger Outstanding Senior. Congratulations to both of them.

Thank you to co-host chapter Pennsylvania Theta at Carnegie-Melon University, and all the volunteers and staff who made The Carlson Leadership Academy possible.
