Angels Abroad

As the semester gets rolling, many of Pi Phi's juniors are preparing to study abroad! Some places our members have gone in the past include Italy, France, England, South Africa, India, Tanzania, Ireland, Costa Rica, Belize, Seville, Barcelona and Nicaragua! Our Pi Phi Sisters have brought back knowledge and experiences from all over the world. We love hearing about all their adventures upon their safe returns!

Ocean to Ocean 2013

Our president, Maggie Quinn, and sophomore Savannah Windhorn recently attended the Pi Beta Phi Convention in San Diego, California.  Along to supervise was one of our Alumnae Advisory Committee members, Kathleen North.  The group had a great time, learned a lot, and networked with Pi Phi's from across the country! We are all very excited for the ideas they've brought back for us!

T.A.K.E.

Last Sunday, Wisconsin Alpha had our annual T.A.K.E self defense workshop.  It’s an amazing sisterhood event and we all learned some very impactful self defense techniques!  We learned escape maneuvers, important facts about awareness, and daily tips to consider during our busy lives. Safety and health are two major priorities we work to promote in Pi Phi, and it was great to see all of our girls working together! We want to thank Jill, Bob and their crew for coming out!
