Delta Sigma Pi - Pi Rho Chapter

This semester we initiated a new pledge class, the Alpha Kappa class, and welcomed 26 new brothers into our brotherhood. We are so proud of our new brothers and are very excited about continuing to grow our chapter. Huge thank you to Katherine Hinves, our Vice President of Pledge Education, and Darci Garrity, our Senior Vice President, for all of your efforts to welcome an incredible group of individuals. Welcome, Alpha Kappas!

One of Delta Sigma Pi's core values is Professional Development, as our brothers better prepare themselves for the fast-paced, ever-evolving business world. We pride ourselves on establishing connections to foster both professional and personal success, as well as finding opportunities to mentor and be mentored by experts in our respective fields. The Pi Rho chapter is proud to celebrate our brothers' professional achievements and would love to recognize one of September's "Distinguished Deltasigs." First is Jocelyn Mongell, who accepted a full time offer at ALKU as a Recruiter following graduation in May 2025. Since participating in ALKU's internship since September 2023, she has loved ALKU's culture and the opportunities the company provides. Congratulations Jocie!

Pi Rho would like to congratulate our Chapter Advisor, Sean Wandrei, for receiving national recognition and awarded Chapter Advisor of the Year, as both the Provincial Winner for the Northeastern Province and Regional Winner for the North Atlantic Region. We are so thankful for all of your support and efforts throughout each semester. You play a huge part in our fraternity's success and growth. Congratulations!

Last week, our Vice President of Professional Activities, Rachel Goland, and Director of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion, Abby Reddivari, organized and hosted Pi Rho's first Interconnection of DEI & Professionalism Event. The Panel Session welcomed three esteemed UMass Professors including, LEONCE NDIKUMANA, Silvia Triani, and Kerri Bohonowicz. Students learned more about the diverse backgrounds in the business space, as well as understand the career journeys and experiences of professionals. The networking portion of the night allowed students to connect with the professors and receive knowledgeable career advice. Professors also had the opportunity to discover students' academic and career aspirations. Thank you Rachel and Abby for planning this amazing event, the UMass professors for their time and inspiration, and the group of students who attended!
