A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to attend Alpha Rho Chi's 76th National Convention in Omaha, NE. Since first attending the event in 2015, I've taken pleasure in seeing new and familiar faces, learning about architecture schools across the nation, and broadening my understanding of the possibilities within environmental design. Some of my favorite parts included the ten-year alumni track prepared by Zack Borell and Alumni Directors, and Ingrid Kanics' presentation about applying principles of Universal Design to playgrounds. I currently volunteer with the Expansion Team (pictured here), who are working to install Alpha Rho Chi chapters at more universities. I'm grateful to be part of an organization that continues to give back to its members throughout every stage of their career as design professionals.

Check out what the Hadrian Chapter at Tulane University has been up to! In a collaboration between Tulane University’s Hadrian Chapter, Strong City Tulane, and an after-school program for elementary school kids, a recent philanthropic event unfolded to spark the imaginations of budding young designers. The fraternity members, driven by a passion for both architecture and community engagement, decided to guide these young students through a creative journey of envisioning and building their dream houses.

Happy Founders Day Alpha Rho Chi! On April 11, 1914, Leo M. Bauer and Chandler C. Cohagen met at the Hotel Sherman in Chicago to establish Alpha Rho Chi. 110 years later our devotion to Brotherhood and Professional Development has not diminished. Thank you to all the brothers of APX who have made this fraternity great since its founding! Fidelitas, Amor et Artes.
