Three Brothers Attend the Chapter Executives Conference in Memphis, TN.
Each year, brothers who are interested in being future leaders within Alpha Xi make the trip to Memphis with the goal to learn more about their prospective roles.
This year brothers Cole Kendall (left), Luke Benscoter, Nick Vukovich (right) attended the conference.
Beyond the standard programming, they had the opportunity to visit MHQ, learning more about Alpha Xi history and the documents that MHQ collects for us.
PIKE Maintains the Highest GPA in the IFC. Once again, Alpha Xi tops the IFC with an impressive 3.49 GPA in Fall 2023.
Not only did Alpha Xi have the highest GPA, but also the most number of brothers with 165 active brothers this past fall.
We are very proud to instill a culture of academic success. Brothers have leveraged Alpha Xi's resources to continually find success in the classroom.
A Weekend in Nashville: Alpha Xi's Annual Formal
Our Nashville Formal serves as a great way for brothers to get away from the hustle and bustle of Clifton, and enjoy a memorable weekend filled with camaraderie, laughter, and unforgettable experiences in the heart of Music City. From exploring iconic landmarks to dancing the night away in Nashville's vibrant nightlife scene, Alpha Xi's Annual Formal created lasting bonds and cherished memories for all who attended.
Brothers Learn about Human Trafficking from UC Director of International Admissions
Our continuing education events, otherwise known as SLAG events, serve as a great opportunity for brothers to learn about societal problems, personal and professional development opportunities, or even global issues.
Dr. Jon Weller, UC Director of International Admissions, came to speak about an issue that has become especially prevalent in recent years: human trafficking.

Founder's Day is right around the corner. This year, it will be on February 23rd at 7:00 PM at Kenwood Country Club! I'd encourage all alumni to attend, as CE & CF will be presenting scholarships to active chapter and updates on the Digby Lot development!
After the event, alumni and actives will be going to the bowling alley at Hoppin' Vines (8150 Montgomery Road, 5 min Drive from KCC).
I would like to thank you all for taking the time to read this newsletter. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any and all questions/comments this year!
