New Associates Move Into The House |
|
On September 15, 2007, 6 future brothers moved into the Chapter House. Pi Kappa Phi�s presence on Campus is already making an impact on Greek life as there is a renewed interest and buzz on campus following the renovation and re-opening of our house. Brother Carlos Ramirez, Theta Eta, American University, fills the newly created role of the House Director. Carlos is a second year law student in the new Drexel School of Law. He was a charter member of his chapter at American University and will be a great resource for the new group as they go through the year-long chartering process. |
