Cornell Chapter Initiates 14 New Members

The Cornell Chapter is very proud to welcome 14 new members! We recently just held our weekendchapter initiation event.

Our current new members will be Nationally Initiated later this spring. Our chapter initiation is a weekend-long event that starts on Friday evening and concludes on Sunday morning. It starts with a ceremony on Friday night ...

Studying Away

Studying Away

Brothers from AZ joined together at Marston Science Library last night to tackle the daunting subject of Microbiology. We all sat around for hours quizzing each other on the material and discussing topics that some of us didn't fully understand. Being able to study in a group of intelligent peers allowed me to absorb the material and feel more confident to take my exam. We also munched on some tasty brownies and washed it down with green tea. It was a great bonding experience, as well as ...

Every night of our spring break trip in Key West the entire group of 14 brothers cooked and ate dinner together.

Although everyone looked forward to the delicious meals each night, we all were even more excited for the bonding that took place around our one dinner table. Each night we took turns reflecting on our favorite part of the service project from that day, as well as any ...

Brothers started the day with a farm tour where the founders told us more about the history of the organization. After the tour we seeded a couple of the pastures that had been grazed down with rye grass so that the horses will have grass to eat in the spring.  We also got to interact with the horses, most of which were also rescued from bad situations. The CORRAL Riding Academy is a faith ...

Between snowball fights, running with the dog, and sliding down the hill it is safe to say that all of us had a blast. Snow days rarely happening in North Carolina, so when it does the North Carolina Chapter definitely takes advantage.
