The Beta Upsilon coffee table history book called "One Saturday In November: 100 Years of Sigma Chi at Washington State University" will be released at Grand Opening on Saturday, September 11th at the Centennial Chapter House.

​

Each Beta Upsilon alum attending Grand Opening and undergraduate living in the house will receive a free copy on the spot.

​

The 100-page luxurious book chronicles every decade since our founding in 1919 and uncovers fascinating tidbits of history mined from the WSU archives, scrapbooks, old Chinooks and even stories told verbally by the brothers who were there.

 

It is packed with more than 300 images including rate photos of our founding, the proposal to build the old colonial house, heartbreaking photos of the demolition of the old colonial house and touching stories of how we became one of the few fraternity chapters in North America to go more than 100 years - unbroken.

​

We survived four wars, two pandemics, social upheaval, national economic collapse and a cute little pet piglet named "Sig the Pig" who walked around Greek Row and somehow grew into a 600-pound behemoth.

​

You'll read the story of how our chapter dwindled down to just two men - the Consul and the Pro Consul who actually held a chapter meeting to commit to save the charter.

​

Every Beta Upsilon alumni and live-in undergraduate will receive a complimentary copy at Grand Opening. Others may purchase their copy for $100 plus shipping on a first-come, first- served basis. If we run out of copies, we may arrange a pre-order to print additional copies.
