Psi U International Convention coming to Champaign in 2010 - In addition to winning two dignified awards at our international convention this summer, the Omicron chapter was chosen to host the 167th Convention (2010) right here in Champaign. This will coincide with our Centennial Celebration as we were installed as a chapter of Psi U in 1910. We are very excited to be selected for this honor and will put on a great event for our brothers from across the continent.

Through the leadership of Brothers Lew Finkelstein '83 and Brad Corner '72, and with the generosity of Brother Thomas W. McCaffer, Jr. , we are proud to announce the inception of this award in Brother King's memory. Bill King was a true giant in our fraternity. He served the chapter in many capacities, including Alumni President, in addition to maintaining a long-standing relationship with our International. He was a fixture at Convention alongside his friends Brothers Corner and George Williams EI '79, and he made countless friends across generations of Psi U's.

Professionally, Brother King was an associate with Gesas, Pilati & Gesas for 14 years in a bankruptcy law practice. A 1977 graduate of the DePaul University College of Law who was admitted to the Illinois bar in 1980, Mr. King was a law clerk to Judge Charles B. McCormick of U.S. Bankruptcy Court before joining the law firm. When he passed away in the fall of 2000, Brother King was survived by his wife, Carol; a son, W. Patrick III; and brother, Patrick.

Relay for Life:The brothers have really put forth an effort to be of service to the community, and this note from Brother Sanchez is no exception. Take a read and consider supporting this worthy cause

Hey Komie,
     This Friday the guys and I are participating the biggest philanthropy on campus Relay for life.  It's an event where teams try to raise money to support cancer research.  This event means a lot to us and touches close to home for a couple of our members.  So far our Psi U team has done a great job of raising $325 but we're still shy of our goal.  I was wondering if you could send this link out to the alumni to try to muster up a little more support.  The relay is this Friday - Saturday but we'll be accepting donations for another week after the actual event.  Thanks a ton. Visit this link to support our team's efforts.
