FINDINGS
CORRECTION! In the Fall 2023 Issue, we mistakenly attributed Harry Kammerer’s chapter of initiation. Brother Kammerer is an initiate of Zeta Lambda Chapter at Adrian College. We regret the error. PIKE is headed to Whitewater! Pi Kappa Alpha is expanding to the University of Wiscon- sin-Whitewater spring of 2024! Professional Expansion Con- sultants Anthony Bachmayer (West Chester, Mu Lambda ‘21) and Mason Braun (Ne- braska-Omaha, Delta Chi ‘19) are on campus recruiting the next generation of Pikes. We look forward to joining the UWW campus and Greek community! PIKE Partners with CredibleMind Introducing a new digital platform to support the mental health and wellbeing of our members! Through a partnership with Credible- Mind, Pikes will have digital access to more than 10,000 science-backed self-care resources. Topics include resources and support related to: addiction and recovery, anger management, anxiety, breakups, burnout, cannabis, emotional intelligence, death and dying, grief and all its forms, and gambling. This new platform will replace PikeLifeline as a service pro- vided through the generosity of those contributing to the Blake Caummisar Fund. Visit pike.crediblemind.com to learn more!

What does it take to win a Smythe Award? The Robert Adger Smythe award is given annually to the top 10% chapters of Pi Kappa Alpha. Here is what some recent Smythe winning chapters had to say when asked about what it takes to win a Smythe: Creating a winning team with shared responsibility is an essential component to obtaining a Smythe. If you need assistance in creating documentation or a plan to best approach the Year End Summary, contact your Chapter Consultant today.

I believe having a designated role to help with the awards process and YES is a useful strategy for winning a Smythe Award.”

As he nears the end of his term
as International President, Chris Peterson, (Florida, Alpha Eta ‘91) reflects on his time at the helm of Pi Kappa Alpha. Te Shie & Dio spoke with Brother Peterson about the meaning behind the last two years as international president. S&D: Chris, you are the 54th man to assume the oce of international president. A top priority for you during your term has been growth. Why should Pi Kappa Alpha prioritize growth now more than ever? Growth should always be a priority for us, but there are some factors that do make now a unique time. The decline of the number of young men entering college now and through the next several years has created a major threat for fraternities but has also presented a great opportunity. The threat is obvious — as the number of men in college decreases, the number of those joining fraternities will naturally decrease. The opportunities — like many opportunities in life — aren’t obvious. The rst opportunity that we have is to provide unique value to our members that they may not receive from

their host institutions. As colleges and universities shrink in enrollment, many will decrease the resources that they’re able to provide their students. Programs such as professional development, mental health support, and career guidance will decrease. This void can be filled by Pi Kappa Alpha — and it will be filled with programs specifically designed for Pikes. Another opportunity is the pressure to change our approach and become better recruiters. We’ve already started this journey of building a playbook for Pikes to recruit and win rush in the changing environment of the next 10–20 years. The amazing results of the last 18 months make it clear that our efforts are working. S&D: Clearly Fraternity leadership cares about growing the organization. Why should each individual member care about growth? No matter what career a Pike chooses, they will need to grow. Whether they’re a concert pianist, an attorney, or a sales professional, growth is necessary for their success. Implementing a strategy, introducing yourself to strangers, and asking them to be Pikes — knowing that they might reject you — are all skills that will benefit our members for the rest of their lives. No better time to learn these skills than now. S&D: Speaking of growth and recruitment: What is your ‘Why PIKE’? First, I’d like to answer, “Why fraternity?” I think all young men should explore joining a fraternity. The lifelong friendships, vast network, and skills that fraternity
membership teaches are benefits unique to the fraternity experience. Why Pike? Since joining over 33 years ago, and meeting hundreds of men from other fraternities, I believe PIKE has a higher expectation of its members and will provide the resources to get them to meet these expectations. All organizations expect strong academics and appropriate behavior from their members, but we expect an attitude of competing to be the best we can be at everything we do. I believe that these expectations make life more fulfilling. S&D: You’ve had a lot of professional success as well. What did you learn as an undergraduate member that prepared you for your career? When I entered the workforce, I felt like I was cheating because of where I was in my professional development compared to others my age. Simple skills that can only be learned in a fraternity environment like listening to opposing views, participating in meetings, organizing my week, understanding emotional outbursts, and handling rejection. While others had to grow and learn these lessons along the way, I was using them from day one. S&D: What advice would you give a recent grad about giving back to the Fraternity as a young alumnus? First, do it now, and for any chapter — it’s not just about yours. Next, don’t just think about the experience you had as an undergraduate and the structure of support that was present in your chapter. The benefits a
recent grad can provide to a chapter are incredibly valuable because of their familiarity and ability to relate to the undergraduate members. S&D: How has fatherhood shaped you as a leader? Fatherhood has changed everything about the person I am. Ask anyone who knew me before and after. I’m a more understanding and empathetic person since our daughter was born. I’ve al- ways been a good person — my mom instilled the value of ethics and honesty in me from the beginning — but I see people differently today than I used to. As a leader, I meet people where they are and help them get to where they need to be. Before I was a father, I started at the destination and essen- tially told people “Get here. I’ll help you but get here or leave.” Today, it’s more like: “Here’s where you want to be and here’s where you are. Let’s get moving in the right direction together and take it a few steps at a time.” My ability to influence is much greater now than before. S&D: Are there any individuals that have served as role models in your life? Sure, and they’ve changed as I’ve moved through the different stages of life. They were always real peo- ple, though. I never really

between our council and staff about the progress of our ve-expansion projects and the incredible success we had on those campuses last fall. One of our undergraduate brothers, Eddie from Long Beach, was working out in the Peabody Hotel gym after the Chapter Executives Conference in January. I was there already, and he said to me: “Your speech last night changed my life.” In 1992, Jerry Askew’s speech at the Phoenix Convention changed my life, so this was a special moment that I’ll always remember. Presenting the 2023 Loyalty Award to A. Frank Smith was incredible. In the middle of my speech, once the audience learned that the winner was Frank, all 600 men jumped to their feet and gave him the loudest ovation that banquet hall has ever heard. The greatest memory was my nine-year-old daughter running up to the stage to hug me after I was elected International President. My wife followed close behind her — she didn’t run. I couldn’t stop crying after that. I was going to be able to walk in the same path that only 53 other Pikes had walked, and I got to hug the two of them at the same time, and the emotions were overwhelming. S&D: Outside of family, Fraternity, and career, what brings you joy (besides Florida football)? Well, Florida football hasn’t brought me joy for a long time. I’m simple. I’m in love with my routine when I’m not traveling for work — walking our dog, working out, taking
about her day, etc. Seriously, my favorite thing to do is have movie night with them. To answer your question, I love snow skiing. Even though I’ve been traveling for work my whole career, I still love to travel — especially to new places. I like to read the classics — currently a quarter of the way through War and Peace . I like to play golf, though I haven’t been able to do much of it lately. I enjoy following all sports, but I especially like college football, professional baseball, and professional basketball. I love attending baseball games at minor and major league parks. S&D: What is the top item on your bucket list? The number one priority of my life is to help my daugh- ter live a fullling life and make a positive impact on her community. Not really a bucket list item, but it’s the center of everything I do. S&D: How would you like to be remembered as international president? I hope I’m remembered as an international president who sparked us to grow while every other fraternity is trying to manage a decline in membership. Peterson served two terms as international vice president prior to his election as international president in 2022. He facilitated the Fraternity’s strategic plan in 2016, and served as an international educational and recruitment advisor, as Sunshine Regional President, Alpha Eta Alumni Association president, and chapter advisor to Eta Phi Chapter (Central Florida). He was also a member of the Fraternity’s staff. Peterson is the founder and president of Vector Firm, which specializes in sales and marketing consulting, and training services focused on the security technology industry. He resides in Orlando, Florida with his wife and daughter.
to do the right things. As I left college, Pikes like Ernie Cox and Kevin Virta served as role models for me — they just did the right thing, and it always seems effortless. Today, my role models are close friends who are fathers and professionals. I have a handful that serve as my personal board of advisors.

The Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation was recog- nized in — not one — but two areas, for the second year in a row! This year winning both Best Stewardship Effort and Best New Development Idea. BEST STEWARDSHIP EFFORT PIKE Foundation was recognized as having the most effective stewardship efforts through our President’s Council program which involves personalized connections, insider communi- cations with pertinent updates, and exclusive premium items. Our goal is to ensure a mean- ingful engagement with each of our highly valued President’s Council members while acknowl- edging their vital support and commitment to the Founda- tions’ mission and values. BEST NEW DEVELOPMENT IDEA Pi Kappa Alpha Foundation alongside Sigma Alpha Epsilon Foundation and Sigma Chi Foun- dation were recognized for The Interfraternal Giving Tuesday Challenge. The organizations enjoyed a fun, friendly competi- tion between fraternity founda- tions to see which organization can raise the most money for its unrestricted annual fund on Giving Tuesday.
