Recent groundbreaking studies have discovered that men who join fraternities fare better –– in school and life –– than those who don’t.
It comes as no surprise to me, and I hope to you, too, that these measures include more positive academic outcomes, higher campus involvement, better psychological well-being, a greater sense of belonging, and feeling more prepared for their futures.
We see this excellence playing out at Indiana University. In case you haven’t been following our chapter closely, here’s a look at some of Indiana Beta’s recent stats:
- Our new executive team and chairs (18 total) were selected and excited to continue progress and focus on chapter and personal excellence.
- Fall recruitment topped 31, including 5 legacies, bringing total undergraduate membership to 171
The chapters overall GPA is 3.288, with the goal to achieve 3.4 by the end of the Spring semester - 17 brothers earned a chapter-based scholarship and 1 national scholarship
News like this confirms the value of every minute of time, ounce of effort, and dollar of support you invest in your successors’ future—including your generosity to Phi Psi, which supports the effort to add to our house and every meaningful benchmark of their academic, professional, and personal growth.
I’ll go so far as to say that your past membership helped CREATE positive outcomes in your chapter like those referenced above. You’ve helped CREATE a home for exceptional young men.
Please make an investment with a gift to the Indiana Beta OneFund.
Today’s generation is growing up in a challenging world. Thank you for furthering the incomparable value of Phi Psi at IU, providing more men with THE defining experience of their collegiate journey, and setting them on a lifelong pathway to achieving their greatest aspirations.
Fraternally and gratefully,
Ed Hawes ’76
P.S. Every time you give, you become a founder of the future. The Phi Psi of tomorrow will be forged by the brothers of today. Please lead the way, providing for greater things to come by making your best gift this month. Thank you!
