After a fun recruitment season in Fall of 2017 filled with happy hours, pumpkin carving, and a core class review cookout, we welcomed eleven new brothers and sisters from the Classes of 2020 and We then held our annual Homecoming Tailgate and were delighted to have so many current and past members attend for a day of good food, good people and good times! We will once again be hosting the Alumni Tailgate on October 6th, In the spring of 2018, we continued our philanthropic tradition of making raised dog beds to donate to the Franklin County Dog Shelter and helped new members learn the basics of power tools. We also welcomed alumni to the Midwest Veterinary Conference with our annual alumni reception at Barley s Brewcadia. In autumn of 2018, we are eager to welcome new members into our family and are looking forward to hosting the Alpha Psi National Conference in January. We hope to continue to expand our new Adopt an Active Alumni Donor program where our newest members are partnered with alumni who share similar career areas of interest and are willing to sponsor a portion of their initial dues. We also look forward to the Alumni Tailgate on October 6th and the Alumni Reception in the spring. We are excited to continue planning other brotherhood-building events and look forward to seeing you soon! Alpha Psi Alpha Chapter 1
