Second Annual War of the Roses Event Last year marked the beginning of the War of the Roses (WOTR), a new campus-wide philanthropic event held by the Alpha Upsilon chapter. WOTR consists of four main events in which sororities compete to raise the most money. All proceeds from the WOTR go to the Ability Experience, which is Pi Kappa Phi’s national initiative created to serve and empower people living with disabilities. The second annual WOTR will start in January with the Kick-Off BBQ, Volleyball Competition, Date Auction, and The Ability Experience Day. We expect a great turn out on campus with a total of seven sororities signed up to compete in raising the most money. We are thrilled to begin such a philanthropic event that will continue to grow and be recognized across campus for coming years! Picture of our brotherhood paintball event this fall:

This past Spring term of 2018 kicked off the beginning of the Intramural Athletics Cup between all Greek life fraternities. So far, our chapter of Alpha Upsilon is off to a fantastic start. Pi Kapp has won every championship since the start in Spring, setting us up in great position to keep it rolling this Fall and Winter. The championships we have claimed thus far include soccer, dodgeball, volleyball, and wiffleball. See pictures to the right of our brothers after these wins. Our flag football team plays in the championship on November 27th, while other sports are still competing in early rounds of playoffs. We look forward to seeing the final result.
