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.

Please note that we are unable to provide any accommodations or supervision for students prior to the check-in time. Commuter students should also arrive for check-in by 2pm on Sunday, July 2, 2017, and plan to stay until approximately 6pm for VASI orientation activities. Check-in Location: Warren Towers Dormitory, 700 Commonwealth Avenue Students will be given their VASI student information packet, room assignment, keys, a temporary Boston University ID card, and a mailbox number at check in.
