Local History

The Alpha Pi Chapter was founded on October 6, 1991

The first class consisted of 23 Brothers

The largest initiate class, Alpha Gamma - Spring 2005, had 30 Initiates

There are 12 committees within Alpha Pi: Executive, Social, Service, Scholarship, Alumni, Fundraising, History, Interchapter Relations, Rush/Public Relations, Homecoming/THON, Risk Management, and Web

The Prism is the Chapter's newsletter that is sent out to our Alumni Brothers every semester

For the past four years, our initiate classes have embarked upon a retreat and the tradition continues

Alpha Pi is an active participant in The Penn State Dance Marathon to help fight pediatric cancer - In 2008, our chapter raised over $17,000 for THON's causes

In 1997, our Chapter won the C.H. McClure Service Award for our efforts at THON

In 2000, our Chapter was awarded Most Outstanding Fundraising Event (for our fundraising for THON) and Most Outstanding Website

In 2001, our philanthropic event changed from a Win, Lose, or Draw Tournament into Brother Bowl, which is a competition between chapters to raise money for our philanthropic cause
