I am thankful for this brotherhood. During times of tribulation or hardships, these gentleman were there so lift me up when I felt low. This fraternity has challenged me to grow to my fullest potential and far beyond. Never settling for good enough, but to strive for greatness in all that I do in life.

I’m thankful for my Program Educator, Class Dad, Special Lady, line brothers, brothers and last but not least my big bro. All of these people help support me through everything and taught me very valuable lessons that I will be able to continue to instill in the future. All of these support figures allowed me to gain determination, confidence, and further improve my communication skills. If it wasn’t for these support figures I would not know where I would be today. Words can’t even describe how thankful I am for everyone. Thank you so much.

Big Brother: Julian Yu
Little Brother: Simon Yoo

Coming to college, I never thought or knew anything about Greek life. I wanted a group of people that I can call brothers to help me fit in these transitions. Through this process, I experienced something different to grow. I want to continue to grow and be more confident in myself, and I’m glad this fraternity will help me achieve that goal. I want to thank my line brothers, bros, Program Educator, Dad, Special Lady, and biggie! I’m just so grateful for these support systems in my life.

I am very grateful and thankful to my big, line brothers, Dad, Special Lady, Program Educator and everyone who has supported me overall. Through the process all these people that I have met had given me motivation and a reason to keep on moving forward no matter how many obstacles are in the way. No matter how many times I fall, I shall rise back up and keep on going in order to reach my goal. I would like to thank everyone again who has been there for me. Without these people, I wouldn’t think I be the person I am today.

Big Brother: Kenneth Randall

I’m thankful that I have gained since becoming a brother of Kappa Pi Beta. The support system gained from joining is one that can not be replaced. Thankful for my line, our class mom and dad, and my big for being there whenever I need them and allowing me to be there for them if they ever needed. But none of this would be possible without every brother of Kappa Pi Beta doing their part to uphold the name.
