 Twelve freshmen and one junior spent their Spring Break Week (March 15-21, 2009) in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico attending Leadership Training provided by the American Leadership Academy. The Academy offers the leadership training experience for four consecutive weeks in March each year and invites all Phi Psi chapters to send representatives. More than 500 brothers from around the country attend each year.
The attendees from Indiana Beta were: Scott Agness, Nick Barry, Evan Burns, Steve Coval, Joey Dickstein, Jack Finks, Ethan Gundy, Mike McCoy, Andrew Neems, Peter Rentschler, David Smith, Nick Sterr and Bryan Wolfe.

The programming included presentations on Recruitment, Networking, Negotiating, Committment, Job Interviewing and Etiquette. They also met as a group to discuss Chapter specific issues and goal setting.
Indiana Beta was also well represented in the faculty, with the following alumni participating in all or part of the week: Kent Agness '69, Tom Auer '90, Dan Cartright '73, Brian Clarke '76, Kevin Daley '90, Wade Garard '90, Doug Harlan '88, Bob Kort '88 and CJ McClanahan '90. |

In preparation for a major capital campaign and construction project at Indiana Beta, the alumni board needs old photos representing fraternity life (not dance photos) from each decade in the past 50 years (or more). Also, any records that former board members have would be helpful.
