Beta Theta Pi is one of the largest and most successful international fraternal organizations. In holding up to our end of the bargain the Southern Illinois chapter of Beta Theta Pi continues to prove itself as one of the best chapters on campus. The chapter has won the “best chapter on campus” ever since it has been eligible to run for the award beginning in 1999. Beta Theta Pi is an organization that strives for excellence in four distinct categories, which include: academics, philanthropy, athletics, and social distinction.
