KΨ Delta Xi

Delta Xi would like to welcome 26 newly inducted brothers! We are so excited to have this great addition to our chapter. We’re so proud of our new brothers. And a special thanks to our pledge masters and pledge masters elect, Ethan Koons, Tayler Babbs, and Amanda Eggers for their hard work during this process ❤️

Congratulations and welcome to our 27 new pledges!

We want to wish a happy birthday to another Delta Xi brother and Co-GCD, Dr. TJ Chapman. Dr. Chapman has always been highly involved in Kappa Psi, including serving as Satrap for the entire Mountain East Province from 2015-2016. While at Shenandoah University, he was involved in ASHP and SGA and now he is working as a pharmacist at Rite Aid. Here’s a little more about him!

Fun Fact: "I could never talk in front of a group of people before pledging and I used Kappa Psi to develop public speaking skills and to get over my phobia."

Why Kappa Psi?
"I had close friends who were heavily involved in Kappa Psi, such as Will Kennard and Austin Kanoy. In addition, I had been to Kappa Psi events, such as the Combest Bonfire, where I met many brothers. I also volunteered with brothers (including my future big) at several community events."

What is your favorite Kappa Psi memory?
"Will Kennard convincing Cameron Stewart and myself to carpool to Buffalo in 2013 for our very first province even though we had exams to study for. We would alternate driving and studying on our way up. I wouldn't trade that province for the world!"

We want to wish a happy birthday to our Co-GCD and Delta Xi alumni, Dr. Marilyn Hill! While at Shenandoah University, she was also involved in PLS, APhA, and NCPA. She is currently a pharmacist at Inova Mount Vernon Hospital and here is a little more about her!

Fun Fact: My goal is to visit national parks and collect stamps from all 50 states.

Why Kappa Psi?
A pharmacist from home in CA recommended I join when I got accepted to Shenandoah. I had the mindset of just going to school, studying, and graduating. Kappa Psi surrounded me with mentors and leaders and truly brought out my full potential of being the best pharmacist I can be; I owe my opportunities and career successes to Kappa Psi.

What is your favorite Kappa Psi memory?
It would have to be during province in Baltimore. We prepared two raffle baskets and I wrote a sweet note to give a fun fact about Wi******er, except I put a WRONG fact and did not have another card to spare so I scribbled it all out then corrected it. The card looked terrible. I then put the correct fact on the second basket. Dinner time came and someone won one of our baskets and I watched in horror as he opened the card wondering if he received the scribbled card. Later, Kelly our secretary just happens to win our basket. Those who helped prepare the baskets stared at the card as she brought it back to the table. I then grabbed the card from her basket, opened it, IT'S THE SCRIBBLED CARD--what are the chances?! We all then die laughing. 😂

Today our brotherhood was able to come together and walk to cure Diabetes in Washington DC! We were able to raise hundreds of dollars to contribute to he American Diabetes Association. Thank you to everyone who donated to our cause and to the brothers that helped set this event up.

A few of our brothers had some fun bowling last Friday with our pledges!

We are so grateful to Dr. Stephen Piscitelli for his engaging seminar titled "The Hitchhiker's Guide to Drug Development." Fun fact: Dr. Piscitelli and Dean DiCenzo were in the same Kappa Psi pledge class!

Faculty Kappa Psi brother Dr. David Newton gave a wonderful lecture today honoring the legacy of Eugene White. We are so grateful to Dr. Newton for agreeing to present for the Distinguished Lecture Series and we were humbled once more by the presence of Mrs. White.

Delicious chili, hearty cider, and good company!

Dear Delta Xi,

Reminder that TODAY is the very last day for early registration for 2016 Fall Mountain East Province General Assembly!!! I know I have said this time and time again, but Province is an awesome regional event to network and build ideas with other Brothers. One of the common things you said you wanted out of this Fraternity was to network and improve upon your leadership skills. This is the perfect opportunity to go beyond our Chapter! Not only that, Province is a fun weekend with social events on both Friday and Saturday evenings. So register today! It will be so very sad with just four people showing up from Delta Xi (excluding TJ). :( Plus, it also gives you a preview on what Province is before we host it in the Spring. I look forward to seeing you in Pittsburgh! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Fraternally, S. Sara Pek
