Dear Brothers,

As we head into the end of autumn, I wanted to share well wishes from the Board and a few updates on Omega.

The past few years have been good to the chapter. With 45 active brothers and a new pledge class, Omega continues to grow. This year we placed second in Homecoming, after winning for the three straight years. Brother Keegan Sobczak ’25 was featured in The Rattle for his leadership as the 2024–25 THON Executive Director, and Brother Jim Stalder ’62 received the Distinguished Achievement Award in a ceremony hosted by Brother Alan Copeland, now our National Vice President.

The chapter house remains resolute though aging, as it rapidly approaches its centenary. Thanks to your generosity, we’ve completed many needed repairs: a new commercial refrigerator, updated washers and dryers, repaired doors and steps, mold abatement, refinished floors, new faucets and fire doors, and full replacement of the side stairs to Prospect Ave. Your support has kept the house safe and the doors open.

It has truly been an honor to serve as your Board President for the past two years. However, with young families and other commitments, Brothers Wallace, Speagle, and I will not be seeking re-election next month. Our three positions—President, Vice President, and an At-Large seat—are open for election and we are accepting nominations through Saturday, November 29.  To nominate yourself or another alumnus brother in good standing, please send their name and grad year (if known) to oxomegaboard@gmail.com.  Voting will be virtual and open from November 30 through the annual corporation meeting, which is being held virtually at 5 PM Eastern on Sunday, December 14.  Please visit our website, thetachiomega.com out for the 12/14 corporation meeting link and to check information on elections, bylaws, and Omega as a whole.

Any contribution, large or small, will make a real difference to the chapter and house.  To donate, visit thetachiomega.com/donate, scan the QR code below or mail a check with the doantion form on the back of this mailer. Every dollar supports house operations, repairs, and brotherhood events. You can also update your contact info or catch up on news at thetachiomega.com.

Thank you to my fellow Board members for their dedication and friendship, and to all of you for your continued support. The chapter cannot stand alone—and time and again, you’ve shown up when called.

As we look ahead, I hope we all continue to give back to the chapter that helped shape us. In a world that often feels uncertain, I still find comfort in the first words of our Creed:

“I believe in Theta Chi.”
