Pi Kappa Phi Journal Article!

 On  Saturday, November 22nd - 2008,  the Alpha Upsilon chapter of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity reached yet another historic landmark in its already illustrious legacy.  On this night, which marked the 75th Anniversary since its original founding, over 200 people including active brothers, alumni, girlfriends, wives, school administrators, and parents gathered in the Main Building to join in a grand banquet ceremony. They gathered to celebrate the chapter's past, being Drexel's oldest fraternity, and having seen some of the university's greatest alumni pass through its ranks. And they also celebrated a prosperous future, as the associate chapter was finally granted a new charter from the national fraternity after almost two years of hard work. Just the night before, 40 associate members went through the Pi Kappa Phi ritual of initiation, offiically inducting them as brothers of this great fraternity.

    Speaches were given throughout the night, hosted by alumnus Mike Imms, with key note speakers that included Katie Peoples, directer of Fraternity and Sorority Life; David Ruth, Dean of Students; Steve Evans, Director of Alumni and Volunteer Services for Pi Kappa Phi; Mark E. Timmes, CEO of Pi Kappa Phi; Tony Noce, President of Alpha-Upsilon Alumni Corp; David M. White, National Chaplain; Keith Sheppard, Former National Chaplain/AU Alumnus; Dr. Richard J White, Chapter Adivser; Carlos S Ramirez, House Director; and Michael R. Noce, AU Chapter President.
