Pi Beta Phi

Pi Beta Phi Greek letters

Message from the Chapter President

The CT Alpha chapter of Pi Beta Phi is home to a genuine sisterhood built upon our six core values: integrity, lifelong commitment, honor and respect, personal and intellectual growth, philanthropic service to others, and sincere friendship. Whether through literacy initiatives supporting students in need or connections formed at sisterhood events, each sister embodies these values in her conduct. The commitment to these principles leaves a lasting impact on not only our chapter, but the greater campus community. When I first arrived at UConn, I felt uncertain about where I truly belonged. Joining Pi Phi presented me with opportunities, experiences, and bonds that I will always cherish. Through Pi Phi, I have found my closest friends on campus – incredible women that I am beyond proud to call my sisters. I am so honored to be representing this group of amazing women as Chapter President.

President: Paige Belsito
