Beta Theta Pi

Beta Theta Pi Greek letters
Beta Theta Pi was founded on August 8, 1839 at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio by eight men who united in building of a fraternity which recognizes mutual aid and assistance in the honorable labors and aspirations of life, devotion to the cultivation of the intellect, lifelong friendship and unfaltering fidelity as objects worthy of the highest aim and purpose of associated effort.

Message from the Chapter President

 

My experience in Beta Theta Pi has been defined by the lifelong friendships built through our bond of brotherhood. We continually push one another to grow into men of principle who live with purpose and serve something greater than themselves. Our chapter embodies the core values of trust, intellectual growth, responsible conduct, integrity, and mutual assistance. We believe in making a positive impact on society by holding each other accountable, communicating openly, and supporting one another. As President, I am committed to building a stronger chapter and community while carrying forward Beta’s legacy at UConn.

President: Alexander Martinez
