As we’re entering the full swing of summer planning for the 2021-2022 academic year, it’s important to reflect on the previous year and see what our chapters have accomplished during these unprecedented times. We encourage all alumni to contact their undergraduate chapters; share their stories, form new bonds, and help mold the next generation of Pilam men.

Not four years but a lifetime.
