Last weekend, Bro. Michael (SP24), Bro. Green (SP26), Bro. Singleton (SP26), and Bro. Hoereth (SP26) were grateful to attend the Eastern Region College Brothers Retreat at Rowan University, with the Nu Iota Chapter serving as host.

The retreat provided an outstanding opportunity for leadership development, exchange of ideas, meaningful connections, and brotherhood. Throughout the weekend, our Brothers also supported Bro. Green in his role as the Assistant Director of Education for the Eastern Region.

We look forward to bringing this insight and leadership back to our communities, and continuing to Hold the Light High. ‘06🤙🏾

Still thinking about O-Week?

Last week, we welcomed the newest class of freshmen to campus! As we reflect on the week, we wanted to highlight the work the Brothers of the Alpha Chapter put in to ensure we continue serving our community through mentorship, guidance, and meaningful engagement.

From welcoming new students to creating spaces for connection and support, O-Week was all about helping the newest members of our community start their Cornell journey on the right foot.

Special thanks to Dr. Renee Alexander for her continued support and dedication to Black life at Cornell. Sharing space with a living legend gave our freshmen a one-of-a-kind opportunity to connect with Cornell’s Black history and hear firsthand about the experiences and legacy of Black students before us.
