26 Aug '09

Are you interested in meeting new people on campus? Are you interested in working on service projects to better Georgia Tech and the community? How about getting involved in some mind-enriching activities, like going to a museum or a play? Come Join the Epsilon Theta chapter of Phi Sigma Pi! Phi Sigma Pi is a co-ed organization that brings the best elements of an honor society, service club and social fraternity into a fusion of Scholarship, Leadership and Fellowship. Phi Sigma Pi is an active campus organization at Georgia Tech and offers a wide variety of experiences for our members. Ranging from academic programs and leadership opportunities to service projects and social gatherings, our activities celebrate the diversity of our members and promote the qualities of involvement and brotherhood. Most importantly, we are seeking new members who are friendly, well-rounded and interested in making an impact on campus. We are different from other Greek organizations, so other Greeks are welcome! Because this letter can only begin to explain Phi Sigma Pi, we hope you will attend a Meet Phi Sigma Pi Night to learn more! There will be two of these information meetings: Thursday, August 27 at 7pm in Student Center Rm. 321 and Monday, August 31 at 7pm in Student Center Rm. 319 The Meet Night will be your opportunity to learn more about the organization and meet the Brothers of Epsilon Theta Chapter. (The same information will be presented at both, so you only need to attend one.) Eligible students will have at least 12 credit hours, a cumulative G.P.A. of 3.0 and at least two remaining semesters at Georgia Tech. If you are unable to attend the information meeting but are still interested, please e-mail tech.phisigmapi(a)gmail.com Check us out on cyberbuzz: www.cyberbuzz.gatech.edu/phisigmapi/ The Brothers of Phi Sigma Pi look forward to meeting you! Sincerely, Epsilon Theta Chapter of Phi Sigma Pi
