Abraham, Executive Director Theta Tau Professional Engineering Fraternity 1011 San Jacinto, Suite 205 Austin, TX 78701 Dear Brothers, I am honored to represent the Boston University Colony of Theta Tau in presenting our petition for chapter status. Over the past year, our colony has developed as an organization that truly respects and embodies the three pillars of Theta Tau: Service, Profession, and Brotherhood. Our colony has had the privilege of interacting with the national brotherhood on several occasions. This past summer, brothers from our colony represented Boston University at Theta Tau’s Leadership Academy. Their most important takeaway from this experience was the powerful sense of brotherhood that Theta Tau fosters and practices on a national level. As a colony, we seek to emulate that connection both between brothers, and with alumni in our immediate area. At our first annual Boston Local Alumni Networking Panel, we were lucky enough to host supportive alumni living in Boston. These brothers have since remained in contact with us as a support network to aid our colony in growing and succeeding as part of Theta Tau. As a member of our colony’s founding class I have seen firsthand the success our colony has achieved this past year.

  • Upgrades, Rebranding Designed to Further
    CRANKING UP ‘THE AMP’ BY LISA WHITE UPGRADES, REBRANDING DESIGNED TO FURTHER HEIGHTEN PROFILE OF ST. AUGUSTINE AMPHITHEATRE AND PONTE VEDRA CONCERT HALL . Amphitheatre kicked o its main-stage concert season March 1 with a sold-out show by Alabama, guests at the Florida venue couldn’t help but notice the changes. The 4,000-seat facility had been expanded by 700 seats, and a new food truck area provided fresh local options beyond the traditional concession stands. “We sell out a lot of our shows quickly, so we knew the demand was Athere and the ability to bring in bigger acts,” said Gabe Pellicer, assistant director of the venue and the adjacent Ponte Vedra Concert Hall, about the new seats. “We knew we had a lot of momentum, so we went for it.” The changes coincide with a rebranding for what’s now being called The Amp St. Augustine, including new graphics and brand colors and a fresh tagline — “Big Acts, Small Venue” — that echoes Pellicer’s words. The rebranding eorts are among a continuing eort to create a nationally known venue in a small market. “We felt like we ran into a fork in the road,” Pellicer said. “Do we create more revenue, more shows or a better experience? We’re a government-run venue that doesn’t have to chase prots, so we decided to make it the best we possibly could.” Owned and operated by the cultural events division of St. Johns County, The Amp hosts over 40 concerts and multiple community events annually, including the Saturday Farmers Market, held year-round, and the Sing Out Loud Festival, Florida’s largest free live entertainment festival and benet, held every weekend in September.
