New Exec Structure, New Exec Members After what was characterized as a “short” election day for the men of John Carroll (only five hours), a new executive board has been officially elected. At 11 a.m. on December 8, all brothers were in attendance in the Murphy Room to vote on eight positions on the executive board. In the fall, Eta Epsilon decided to change the structure of the executive board. This board sees the old Cabinet system broken up. With each position on the Executive Board now a Vice President, each member will have at least one person to work with them in their committee. Along with the new system, the VP for Brotherhood and the VP for Programming were created, splitting the duties of the old vice president (Kai and major events) into more manageable roles. The ritual and scholarship chairs are now a part of the Kai committee, serving under the VP for Brotherhood alongside two at-large Kai Committee representatives, elected among those initiated for at least one semester.
Eta Epsilon Brings in 13 New Brothers “Beta was the only fraternity I considered because they were the only ones that seemed to fit me. Joining Beta is the best decision I have made at John Carroll.” -Andrew Caito ‘17 In the fall 2013 semester, the Eta Epsilon Chapter of Beta Theta Pi saw a great deal of success in recruitment once again. Under the guidance of Recruitment Chairman Drew Wagner ‘15, the chapter brought in 13 brothers by the close of formal and informal recruitment. Once inducted into the fraternity, the Lambda Class was put under the guidance of Member Educator Steven Henderson ‘15. After a seven week pledge process, highlighted by the pledge retreat to Thornacres, each new member passed his final exam and was prepared to become an initiated brother. When the group traveled to Oxford for initiation this year, there was an additional treat the morning after initiation.
