Alumni Organizations

Epsilon-Upsilon Alumni Association (EYAA)

-          A socially-oriented organization whose purpose is to provide opportunities for alumni to come together and interact outside of the direct influence of the active chapter. Activities should include group lunches, tailgating, golf outings, etc and will be organized by the alumni at their own volition, rather than by the undergraduates.  The EYAA may be called upon sporadically to help spread the word of upcoming alumni-related chapter programs, and hopefully to spearhead chapter fundraising campaigns.  Basically, if you’re interested in staying socially active with the other alumni of Epsilon-Upsilon Zeta, the EYAA is an organization you should check out!

-          Note: Participation in the EYAA is voluntary so even if you’re unable or uninterested in attending social gatherings, this is a group you should belong to if you wish to stay up on your fellow alumni and to support the Chapter.

Alumni Advisory Board (AAB)

-          The AAB is a select group of up to twelve qualified alumni who choose to take a more active advisory role to the leadership of the chapter.  An AAB member will be a one-on-one advisor to assist in programming for a specific office in Zeta.  AAB members will be chosen by the AAC Committee Manager*, and besides their respective officers, the Committee Manager will be their main source of correspondence with the house.  AAB members will receive minutes from all chapter and/or Zeta meetings and will be in direct contact with their respective officers for monitoring and advisory purposes.  Also, the AAB would be a likely source for finding alumni to fill the role of Chapter Advisor (High Pi) in the future.

-          Note: AAB members CAN use e-mail and telephone to correspond with their officers, so close geographical proximity to the chapter is unnecessary.  Basically, if you’d like to be an advisor, if you have good ideas and would like to see them implemented in the house, or if you’d just like to take an active role in the direction of the chapter programming, ask about the AAB today!

House Building Corporation (HBC)

-          HBC is in charge of maintaining the physical assets of the chapter.  These include, but are not limited to, the chapter house and the land it resides upon (though the land is leased from the University of Tulsa).  Basically, HBC is a registered corporation consisting of alumni who take an active role in ensuring the physical integrity of the chapter house and its foundations.  From the fraternity’s standpoint, having a corporation own the physical chapter house rather than the chapter itself helps to keep both liability and insurance low.  Potential positions within HBC include, but again are not limited to, President, Treasurer, Vice President, and Secretary.

-          Note: HBC meetings are held with chapter officers at least 2x per semester, so geographical proximity is important.  If you’re interested in having an active role in directing the maintenance and growth of the physical chapter house, ask the Committee Manager about HBC today!
