Beta Alpha Psi Again Recognized as a Superior Chapter
Caitlin Murphy and her team
The University of Arkansas Beta Alpha Psi Chapter was again recognized as a Superior Chapter, a ranking given only to the highest performing Beta Alpha Psi chapters in the world.
Five students attended the National Beta Alpha Psi meeting in Anaheim, Calif., in August. They made a presentation on chapter operations. One of the University of Arkansas students, Caitlin Murphy, was one of 72 students selected in a nationwide competition for inclusion in Project Run With It, a consulting competition providing practical advice to three non-profit groups serving South Central Los Angeles children.
All of the U of A students also participated in the day-long Beta Alpha Psi literacy service project for children in need (rather than playing on the beaches)!
Congratulations to the Beta Alpha Psi Leadership and to Charles Leflar, their mentor, for a great year and great national meeting!
