One of the most poignant moments in Psi Upsilon occurs at each Executive Council Meeting when all present stand and bow their heads in silent prayer for the brothers who have died since the previous meeting, or whose deaths have just been reported. This reverent tribute of the Executive Council to those who have died is intended to signify the devotion of each member of our Fraternity to every other member.
