On Saturday March 5, the West Virginia Beta Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity was rechartered at a banquet that marked the group’s official return to West Virginia University.

For the last 10 years, the chapter has used the ride as a fundraiser for various charities, with donors contributing in support of the brothers who make this five-day trip. This marks the third year that the chapter has donated the proceeds to the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America.

A SigEp chapter and a recent graduate have been honored with Awards of Distinction by the North-American Interfraternity Conference. The awards recognize the contributions of individuals and groups that demonstrate the ideals of leadership, service and fraternal values.
