Temporary Housing Update

On August 19th, a pledge class of 40 men and seven chapter officers moved into a temporary chapter house located at 600 East Rollins in Greek town, which is the former Delta Sigma Phi house. This group will always have the distinction of being the only Beta men who have ever lived in Greek town. Most of the remaining members of the active chapter are living together south of Columbia in an apartment complex called the cottages. The members who live there are welcome to go to the house on East Rollins every day to have breakfast and lunch with members of the pledge class.

Spring Pledge Initiation

In July of 2011, the Chapter's spring pledges were initiated at the 171st General Convention in Seattle in front of hundreds of Betas from all over the country.
