Outgoing Executive Board:
Over the last year the Chapter has been well served by several Brothers who will not be returning to the Board. Several members are graduating and others are moving on to take on other UCF leadership positions. The chapter has had some turnover in the last year so multiple people have held multiple positions in just the last year and while some of these brothers may only be taking temporary leave of the exec-board, for now I would personally like to thank them for their time they served:
- Matt Fortin President ‘05, VP Recruitment ‘04
- Greg Downs, President ‘05, VP Finances ‘04, IFC VP Recruitment 04-05
- Ryan Leuring, VP Member Education ‘05 Interm President ‘05 Fraternity Relations ‘04
- Derek Lipshutz, VP Finance ‘05
- Greg Webb, VP Public Relations 04-05
- Scott McQueeny, VP Public Relations ‘05
- Jesse Rowe, VP Recruitment ‘05
- Neil Sneath, VP Loss Prevention ‘05
- Adam Kane, VP Loss Prevention ’04-05
- Javier “JJ” Llevada, VP New Member Education ‘05
- Patrick Evans, VP New Member Education ‘05
As you can see the chapter is being lead by some of the best student leaders that UCF has to offer. If you have any questions or would like to offer any advice or assistance to any of the new officers do not hesitate to write Chapter President Christopher Kingman at linchpin2083@yahoo.com
